Challenging if you do the whole loop. From the north parking area (rt 42) take the Sanford trail. When it meets the Quinipeac trail on the the southern end, take a right and be ready to climb. You will be rewarded at the top with an exceptional view that showed us magnificent fall colors for miles. Thanks to the Connecticut Forest and Parks Association for the exceptional job they do maintaining this and numerous trails across the state. Visit CPFA.org and join.

Great hike..stay to right [if you want the view ] ..you will see sign if starting on 42
