Southside Trail - High Water Route is a 0.6-mile alternate that bypasses flooded sections of the main Southside Trail. NYSDEC marks it for seasonal use — when the water's up, this is the path that stays dry.
Southside Trail - High Water Route runs 0.6 miles (0.9 km) with about 50 feet of elevation gain — an easy hike, nearly level throughout, about 20 minutes on the trail.
