  • I'm so glad I decided to spend a morning visiting this county park. I think it will quickly become my favorite for hiking. Indian Lake is just north west of town in between Waunakee and Mazomanie. For you West Siders, it's crazy easy to get to. Just take the beltline like you are heading to Sauk City and turn left on HY 19 heading towards Mazo. It'll be down a bit and on your left. The main park has a nice little parking lot with bathroom and benches for look out points. Indian Lake is a decent sized lake that is currently undergoing restoration work to bring it back to it's more natural state (aka get rid of all the carp in it). Indian Lake Park has two parts. The main part is for hiking in the summer and cross country skiing in the winter. The other park is a large off leash dog area. The entrance to the dog park area is just past the lake where as the main park entrance is before them. The paths connect to each other, but dogs are only allowed on the west side and the area is clearly marked. No taking dogs into the deeper parts of the park even if they are on leash. There is a cabin in the deeper part of the park, but I'm not sure about it's uses or if it is available for rentals. There are several different types of hiking paths. Along the lake there are many easy slightly rolling grass paths to walk on. The lake itself can be a bit smelly in the late summer in that way that lakes in WI get smelly near the of summer. I'm not a cross country skier, but it seems like these paths would be great for beginners to the sport. Heading deeper into the park there are four numbered paths. The paths start off on the grassy paths, but soon climb uphill into the forested areas. The climbs up are rocky, but not obnoxiously so. There are some steep long climbs though that reminded me that I need to up my cardio and add stair climbing back into my workout routine. The paths are clearly marked for skiers including warnings about steep declines, sharp turns, and for walkers to stay to the side during ski season. I was able to hike around for 2 hours at a decent clip with barely retreading any areas. It's a big park. And one of my favorite parts is that along the paths there are random posts with poems on them. Topping a big climb and stopping to read a poem about nature really made me day there. I kinda wish all parks did this as it made a nice hike that much better. I think this may be a park I have to visit on a more regular basis. Like weekly. It's going to be beautiful come fall.
