Hike Details:

This is a six-mile loop hike in Shindagin Hollow State Forest rated strenuous. Our route is along trails that mountain bikers have developed, along with a small section of the FLT and some woods roads.  The trails are open to hikers, but we may possibly encounter winter bikers. We will step off the trail momentarily to allow the bicyclists to pass by.

Our start point is the unmarked gravel parking lot near the FLT trailhead on Braley Hill Road. Do not park at either of the mountain bike parking lots, which have DEC Forest signs – you will be at the wrong location.

If you register, you will receive an email the night before the hike with a weather update and any other considerations. Cancellation due to weather or other factors is unlikely, but check this site the morning of the hike, just in case.

Any questions, please contact the hike leader at the email address above.
