A secluded passage through mixed forest, this 2.4-kilometer trail within the network draws hikers toward the quiet shores of Ross Pond. The path is reported to maintain gentle grades throughout, making it accessible to those seeking a shorter woodland walk without significant elevation gain. At trail's end, the pond itself—often still and reflective in morning light—offers a contemplative destination, its banks typically quiet enough to observe waterfowl and the occasional beaver sign along the marshy margins.
