This is a wooded trail system that has a slight sense of humor, particularly with the trail names. There’s a little over 2 miles in the trail network here, as well as a couple places to sit under shelter (Cat Camp and a little lean-to at the trailhead). Camp Dirt is mostly just a clearing with old stones. It can be a bit wet on the trails, which don’t seem to be maintained regularly. It’s also a little confusing where the ATV trails intersect the walking paths. More info here.
Directions: From Gardiner, take High Street/Highland Avenue 5.3 miles. Turn left onto Spears Corner Road. The trail begins on the right side of the road 0.2 miles down, a bit beyond the West Gardiner Town Office, across from Helen Thompson School. A large sign marking the trailhead is visible from the road. There is room for several cars to park on the road shoulder.
