Description
This trail begins a very short distance along the Peaceful Path and follows a brook up a gentle slope. The thick forest the trail passes through keeps the trail shaded in the summer and presents brilliant colors in the fall. The trail crosses the brook quite a few times, and passes a number of old swimming pools created by dams that have since failed or been opened.
