Why Herrick?
Boasts of over 7 miles of stunning trails along with fishing and boating facilities in the lake. The half-mile walk around the lake is absolutely blissful during any season, but becomes a must-visit trail during Fall. The trails cut through much acclaimed Danada-Herrick Regional Trail.
