Penosha Loop Trail in Brighton State Recreation Area

The Penosha Loop Trail offers a peaceful and immersive hike through a mix of hardwood forests, scenic meadows, and ridges with glimpses of nearby lakes such as Bishop Lake. This five-mile loop is moderately challenging, with gentle slopes that provide both a good workout and moments for taking in the beauty of the natural surroundings. Wildlife sightings are common, and the trail is especially beautiful in fall when the foliage transforms, creating a rich tapestry of colors along the wooded path. #Hiking #Loop #Lake #Forest #Nature
