Trafton Lake Trails offer easy looping trails that meander through hardwood forests and the edge of potato fields. The trails can be split into two categories described below: easier green trails and more moderate blue trails.
Trafton Green (Cedar Run, Page Alley, Green Mountain): These straighter trails are ideal for easy classic skiing in the winter and are also the most heavily used in the summer with dirt or gravel surfaces.
Trafton Blue (Russet Run and Shaw Loop): These are more windy trails and, while generally easy, include some short steep climbs and descents. In the summer, the trails are mostly grass surfaced and, in the winter, they are occasionally groomed for skiing. These frequently cross the Green Trails.
School Connector Trail (not shown): This is an easy trail that passes along the edge of fields from the north end of the Trafton Trails and finishes on the athletic fields behind the school. There is also a short detour through a nice wooded section.
