The trail is about 1 and 1/2 mi long and it is one large loop. The scenery is gorgeous. Dogs and bikes are allowed. There's also a nature observation deck with a gorgeous view of the lake and lots of bird feeders. There always about 8 to 10 people on the trail. But there is plenty of room for you to pass.
- Trail condition: Good condition
- Shade level: Mostly shaded
- Parking options: Free parking lot

I stop here all the time to eat my lunch while at work. Does anyone know if you are allowed to fish in the pond?
Response from the owner · 4 months ago
hi Michael. We're so happy to know you are enjoying the park! Fishing is not permitted at Char-Mar Ridge Park. We do have fishing without a license available at Hickory Woods Park and Blues Creek Park.

Just walked the Glacier Ridge Trail this morning. Beautiful and quite scenic. A nice, chill little 1.5 mile loop to get the blood pumping. Recommended!
