McAndrews Road – North Shore Road
A longish section of flattish road and trail leads to the west end of Westport Sand Lake. A steep ascent up leads to a ridge walk with impressive views of the lake, especially from Bob’s Lookout. An even steeper descent brings one down into Westport. Rest at Lion’s Club Beach before climbing again up Foley Mountain and the wonderful views from Spy Rock. Continue on undulating trail before exiting on to the North Shore Road.
