Lover's Leap Hiking Trail
138 Silvermine RdStunning views. Good workout!
This is a truly relaxing experience! Rain, snow, or sunshine, nothing beats a beautiful view of the river while relaxing in a tub with a glass of wine in hand! Tubs are filled with water from the hot springs. Definitely worth the money and it's a 5 minute walk from Ellerson House.
