You will park at the Tremont visitor center and will want to ask for directions. It’s a bit of a hidden trail, but a lovely hike.

We love this trail bc it’s a hidden gem. Not too many people are ever on the trail. We’ve been twice and last time were asked to tape an engagement 😊

We love this hike because it is a less advertised, shorter, fairly easy hike, close to the cottage (only 30 minutes away), and yet still an "authentic" hike, meaning that you are still hiking up a narrow mountain trail. The falls at the end are lovely, and we have often packed our lunch to eat when we arrive at the falls. Note: The trailhead is not always well marked. Currently, the Treemont Institute where the hike begins is closed, so there are signs for the hike posted on orange cones, which are easy to follow. When the institute opens again, they may remove the temporary signs, so just ask for directions at the office. Also, since the institute is closed, the restrooms are closed.

This trail is short, relatively easy, and has a beautiful waterfall at the end.
