Parking is located on I believe automobile road in Keene Valley, New York off of Route 73. Be sure to allow ample room for others to enter and exit if the parking lot is full. This is a fun overnight hike or even day hike. If you go just for the day make sure you begin your hike early in the day as this is an 18 mile round trip! The beginning of the trail is marked with a yellow trail marker. At about 3 miles you'll reach a place to sign in! Please do this as it can save a life in case of emergencies! Happy Hiking!
