There is only one path, so there is no danger of getting lost. This circles the entire property and can be walked both ways.
The trail can be and is worth walking at almost any time and any season. Thanks to the tree canopies and tall vegetation, you get shade and close to mid-day.
At a brisk pace, with short breaks for taking photos and admiring nature, the walk takes about an hour. If you plan to take several breaks, don't forget to bring a blanket to lie on and a bottle of water.

Turn-by-turn directions
After a few minutes, however, we pass this unattractive place and enter a woodland. To our left is the lake and to our right is the property fence. Vegetation abounds everywhere and the effort to plant saplings along this stretch is noteworthy and commendable.
The road curves to the left and to your right is Swan Lake. The area teems with life, various waterfowl nest here. You can also spot water snakes (one crossed the path in front of us). These are neither venomous nor aggressive.
Continuing on the trail we pass an apple orchard and enter another forest. We approach the end of the trail and the Barn can be seen on the right, followed by Aventura Park.
Our trail ends near Reception, from where we continue to the bungalow where we were staying.
