This unmarked connector runs three-quarters of a kilometer through the Lake Winebrook network, offering a shortcut for hikers comfortable navigating without blazes. The trail's chief virtue is efficiency rather than scenery, linking established routes for those who know the terrain or carry adequate navigation tools. Travelers should be prepared for the demands of unblazed travel, where attention to topography and a sense of direction matter more than following painted marks.
Lillian Brook Cutoff Trail runs 0.5 miles (0.7 km) with about 590 feet of elevation gain — a demanding hike, with a steep, sustained climb, about 30 minutes on the trail. It climbs to the summit of Macomb Mountain (4,405 ft), one of the Adirondack High Peaks (the 46ers).
