Sylvan Lake has two beautiful hikes both are medium difficulty but definitely worth the effort. Black Elk Peak trail takes to the top of the mountain with outstanding views as far as the eye can see. Sunday Gulch trail starts behind the rock formation at the end of the lake. It has beautiful waterfalls and steep terrain with hand rails. It's a long hike but gorgeous.
