This is a “lollipop” trail.  Start out behind the library, going either direction along the loop. Travel down the “stick” to Lakeview Drive, then retrace your steps until you reach the loop once more. Complete the loop or extend your hike by either following the signs at Lakeview Drive to reach the Seven Bridges Trail, or by exiting the trail along the blue-blazed path to reach Cromwell Lane.
