Winding through a secluded corner of the Adirondacks for just over seven kilometers, this yellow-blazed trail is reported to guide hikers through varied forest types and along quiet waterways where the namesake hollow opens to contemplation. The route, marked by round yellow symbols, often provides a serene escape from more traveled paths in the region's network. Those seeking a quieter woodland experience may find the trail's modest length and gentle character well suited to an unhurried afternoon's walk.
Otter Hollow Trail runs 4.5 miles (7.2 km) with about 512 feet of elevation gain — a moderate hike, with a gentle, rolling grade, about 2 h 30 min on the trail.
