Trail Description 20+ miles of trails wind through the hills and ravines surrounding Dows Lake near Athens Ohio. The trails are maintained by the Athens County OHC chapter and provide beautiful vistas of the glacial ravines. The trails are very well marked. Each trail intersection has corresponding number on the map. There are cabins near the trailhead that can be rented with horse stalls - Lake Hill Cabins. The cabin was very neat and had a very nice hot tub!

Directions Trailhead is off Route 690, turn on Scatter Ridge Road and follow for about 2 miles. Then bear straight on Lake Hill Road (signs directing you to Horsemans Area) and park at the turn around. Picnic tables are near the parking lot. The trail takes off through the woods about 50 feet further down the road from the parking area. Trail maps are located in a mailbox right where the trail enters th woods.
