Winding through just under seven kilometers of Adirondack terrain, this trail within the Lake Wilderness Network is reported to offer the kind of varied topography that rewards patient observation. The route's moderate length makes it accessible to hikers seeking a half-day immersion in the region's forested character, though the ascent—if the name is any indication—likely demands steady effort. Along its course, the path is said to reveal intermittent views across the surrounding wilderness, the sort of earned vistas that arrive after sustained climbing through northern hardwood and conifer stands.
