Top Adventures at The Lake of the Ozarks
There is a lot more to do at the lake than just boat
When most people come to the lake they rent a boat and spend the whole weekend out on the lake. This may be fun on a weekend that isn't busy but on the holiday weekends it is anything but enjoyable. There are tons of things to do at the Lake and in the surrounding areas that won't be busy and that you can do for almost free. Renting a boat can cost you upwards of $500. These adventures only require a few items that most adventurers already have.
1. Backpack the Woodland Trail
2. Hike the Colosseum Trail
3. Hike the Island Trail at Haha Tonka
4. Hike the Rocky Top Trail
5. Backpack the Turkey Pen Hollow Trail
6. Hike the Spring Trail
