Ascending the southern flank of its namesake peak, this blue-blazed trail offers a compact but purposeful climb through terrain characteristic of the Lake Harris Network. The route extends just under a mile and a half, maintained by the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation as part of the broader web of paths threading through this corner of the park. Though modest in length, the trail is reported to provide access to elevations and viewsheds that reward the effort of the ascent.
