Ice Lake Natural Area

Ice Lake is a little jewel of a preserve in Barrett Township. The trail is centered around Ice Lake, which was originally built for ice making. Like general stores throughout the Poconos, the nearby Seguine store made ice for its own use and for sale to local customers. The trail is an easy 1.5-mile loop mixed with wide and well-groomed trail in some places, rocky and narrow in others. A hiking stick is helpful for balance.
