Location

Waterbury Village Historic District, Vermont

Description

A private hiking trail for dogs and their owners 🐾 there will not be any other dogs out on the trail. Our trail is located in Bolton (Waterbury address). It’s is approximately 1 mile up the mountain. There is a Brook that follows the trail most of the way up. The trail starts out with a nice mowed path and leads you into a beautiful canopy of trees as you head into the woods and it quickly turns into a steep uphill hike. We have 135 acres for you to adventure on ! Please follow the signs for the trail head parking - go all the way past the house and you will see a sign on your right.

Cleanliness

100% of guests said this spot was as clean as expected during their visit.

Hazards

HOST NOTE

The trail can be steep in several places so wear appropriate footwear. We recommend bug spray during spring and fall. It can be muddy in some places but overall the trail is relatively dry as it is mostly uphill. The Brook runs next to the trail for most the mile and 1/4 hike.
