Historic Smithville Park, part of the Burlington County Park System has created a path for walkers around this flooded area, with the help of footbridges of many kinds to complete the loop around the lake.

This waymark is for a fantastic floating footbridge, which spans the swampy areas around the lake. It is made completely of recycled material...so it's "natural."
