Panther Mountain Trail

A short connector through forested terrain, this trail spans just over half a kilometer and is marked by red disks maintained by the state's Department of Environmental Conservation. The route is brief enough to serve as a link between longer paths or as a quick woodland walk in its own right. Though modest in length, it threads through country typical of the region's lower elevations, where mixed hardwoods and the occasional rocky outcrop define the character of the forest floor.
