The rewards are the spectacular views

The Battenkill State Forest cradles the Battenkill Valley Outdoors property on 2 sides. A crew of volunteer workers from the Adirondack Mountain Club, and the Battenkill Conservancy-NY created a trail in June 2003 leading hikers toward Peaked Rock. This rock, now off limits by the land owner, is adjacent to a wonderful view-shed, which still offers a rewarding destination.
The trail is 5 Miles round trip, and is not without steep challenges. The views are outstanding as you look across the Battenkill Valley, Eldridge Swamp, & out toward the Adirondack range.

Stop by the shop for a map of the trail, and discover other options within the So. Washington Co. area including Carter's Pond, Mount Tom, and others. Our bears will guide you to the trailhead from our parking area- just a hop over a creek and you intersect the beginning of the trail.
   

Bring a lunch to enjoy at the top. We sell drinks and snack foods at the shop, sunscreen, first aid, hats, socks, hiking sticks, and more. And when you come back down off the trail, remember to stop by our shop for frozen Italian ices,fill your water bottles & a Loo available as well.
