Owl Trail Adirondack – provides a fantastic single adirondack and tenting experience in the woods, at a modest distance from the parking lot.

The Fire Pit and the standing chimney are both nicely positioned in front of the adirondack with a picnic table nearby. This site is also near McGinnes Pavilion for events. The two Wampum Trail adirondacks are very close to this single Owl Trail adirondack, which makes for a nice experience for two related groups.

Directions: To get to this site, take Belden’s Way to Pond Trail. Take a right on Gen. John Nixon Trail.  Pass Big Rock and Canopache. Go left on Owl Trail. The adirondack is in the woods on the right. If you take the shorter path: Belden to Nipmuc to Upland, it will be too steep for a garden cart.
