Marble Point Trail.
Marble Point Trail is a half-kilometer walk that reaches a rocky outcrop on the shore of Tupper Lake. The short distance makes it accessible for most visitors, though the final approach to the point itself may involve some uneven footing over bedrock. Best visited when lake levels allow full access to the water's edge.
