NO FUN ALLOWED! SCE&G tightly controls it & closes the beach promptly after summer for the rest of…read morethe year, therefore, most of the time the beach is useless as there is no access. You can only look at it through chain-link fences along the dam. This isn't in the best interest of the public. I have to travel to Charleston for free beach so I spend my money & pay taxes there. In addition, since 9/11 the police have overreacted & the area is heavily patrolled in a police-state type of environment. Security cameras are foreseeable in the near future. Enjoy!

Lake Murray Dam walkway, travel down Lake Murray Blvd will run into it…read more I come here to run occasionally as it is scenic, breezy, straight, and runners frequent. I just started parking on the Irmo side, parking to left of guard house is free. On a weekend I can see this lot filling up quickly it's not a lot of spaces free. I do think this side is more stretching friendly than the Lexington side. Speaking of Lexington side I always parked there with larger overflow lot but there was construction there last time that closed half the spaces. The walkway across dam is wide enough for about three people walking side by side but for runners it can get hard to pass the more populated. I've seen roller skaters out there, strollers, dog walkers although there is no grass only concrete so pick up the doo. The mileage is about 3.4 miles across and back; there isn't any man made shade except the short barrier wall between lake and walkway. If you come during the day will be in full sun so recommend morning or evening for shadier walks/runs. It's an easy run across, is windy certain spots so make sure hat is tight or you will lose it. Worth visiting.

It has been such a long time since I've been to this trail, and I am so glad I decided to return!…read moreIt was such a pleasant day. It is nice that it is kept up. It was not overcrowded and everyone followed the flow of foot traffic. There were turtles in the river and the canal. The flowers were bloomed, and we even spotted a baby alligator in and out of the river. Not only are their walkers and joggers but there are some bikers and skateboards as well. A lot of people fishing as well. Some parts of the trail was so peaceful! There's two paths, one is paved, less shade, somewhat busy. The other path is closer to the river, between the woods and not as busy as the main path. I had a stroller so I stayed on the main path. Parking and pulling in is a bit of a pain because it is not paved coming in off River Drive. Mile makers, benches, and history displays are throughout the trail. The restrooms and water fountains are in the beginning entrance once you cross the bridge, and there's even dog bowls and a hose for water. Definitely a gem to take in the scenery and enjoy fresh air.
