Falcon South Shore Trail is a 12 km popular family friendly trail starting after the causeway and goes towards the end of the lake. You can start on the Marsh Trail from the Falcon Lake Campground and then connect with this trail for a even longer hike or bike ride. This multi-use trail can be used going in both directions and is mainly flat with some mild uphill sections. The trail is nice and tucked away in the forest which is filled with birch trees and has some great resting spots with benches and a few great viewpoints along the way. Some say that the best part of the trail is if you make it to the end, which brings you to High Lake There are also a few different trails you can branch off and do once you reach the end of Falcon Lake.
