Wampum Trail Adirondacks – provides a fantastic, slightly-remote adirondack and tenting experience for campers, who like to hike in and pack sensibly.

This site is also near McGinnes Pavilion for events. The two Wampum Trail adirondacks are very close to the 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. Go left on Wampum Trail. The adirondacks are 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.
