This is a beautiful hike up a small 760-foot mountain. The trail, which will give you a good workout, is about 1.9 miles.
The path, which is well made and easy to follow, makes a small loop close to the summit (the actual summit has no views). There are a few steep areas here; it’s recommended you walk the loop counterclockwise. The series of three viewpoints you’ll come to along your way are all lovely.
The mountain is part of the protected Crooked River Headwaters easement.
Directions: From Route 5/35, turn onto Vernon Street, and then bear right onto Hunt’s Corner Road. Go 1.2 miles to the parking area on the left.
