The southwestern loop is a moderate hike. The northern trail is slightly harder. The trail to the Old Acworth Stage Road is an easy to moderate short jaunt. Out and back is recommended on this one. From the trailhead, follow the trail to the old lower reservoir where the trail splits, continue straight for the southern loop or turn left for the northern trail. They come together fifty feet up that trail. The southern loop is mostly dominated by hemlock and the northern trail is mostly hardwood. The end of the northern trail ends back at the Hemlock Road, turn left and it’s a short walk back to the trailhead. Deer, turkey, and bear have been seen along this series of trails.
