A brief spur from the Lilypad Pond trail system, this path drops quickly to the shore of a small, sheltered pond known for its resident waterfowl and quiet setting. The route covers barely more than two hundred meters, making it less a destination hike than a worthwhile detour for paddlers or anglers already exploring the area. The pond itself lies in a shallow basin and is reported to hold panfish, though access for launching a canoe requires negotiating the steep final approach to the water.
