Description
The trail is a loop and has arrows to direct you to go clockwise (this is more for the XC ski people). You initially go through an open field, and then the trail follows a stream for a while before beginning the return loop and gently ascending a ridge. There are two viewpoints with benches that have views of the Sugarloafs.
