Stretching more than sixteen kilometers through varied Adirondack terrain, this yellow-blazed route offers a substantial wilderness traverse for hikers prepared for an extended day or overnight journey. The trail is reported to pass through mixed forest and stream crossings, though conditions along its length can vary considerably with season and weather. Those seeking a quieter, less-traveled experience often find the distance itself a filter, leaving much of the route pleasantly remote.
Stone Dam Trail runs 5.4 miles (8.7 km) with about 1,166 feet of elevation gain — a demanding hike, with a gentle, rolling grade, about 5 h 30 min on the trail.
