The lake features a pontoon with benches, allowing you to enjoy the view and nature, literally on the lake. A unique spot for a relaxing moment.

French Fort Cove is a forested ravine system in Miramichi with a mix of short climbs, boardwalk sections, and mostly level shoreline paths along the cove. The trail network includes the Cove Trail, Fish Quarry Trail, and several connectors, all circling the water and passing viewpoints, small bridges, and interpretive signs. The east side of the cove is the most level, while the west side has more elevation changes. The area works well for hiking and running, and some sections are suitable for cycling depending on surface and gradient.
