The Burnt Hill Trail is located on the southern end of the Forest, extending south from Picnic Area Road. It includes forests, shrub-lands and pastures and offers many beautiful vistas along the way. It is a primitive trail with a natural tread. It has gravel in wet areas and traverses through the fenced pastures. This trail can be very muddy in wet weather. Please close gates behind you. The trail intersects the Interloken Trail.
