Brickhouse Mountain Road

Features River/Creek · Wildlife

It's unclear where the actual start of this trail is, but it appears it follows the thin strip of land between the forest and private property. Follow the old road grade; keep the blue plastic diamonds to your right and the yellow private property signs to your left. It ascends through a washed-out gully, over what was the old road. Eventually the trail comes to a Y and it stays right. In a short distance, the trail veers off the main gully and travels through the woods, following faded blue blazes. Follow the blazes, carefully, through here. It rises back to the main tread of Brickhouse Mountain Road and turns left (uphill). Eventually, you'll reach a faded carsonite (on the right; this is a connector to the Pine Mountain Loop and main trails. Here, if you look southwest downhill, you'll see the remnants of the brickhouse. Continue following the old road uphill until you arrive at the Taconic Skyline Trail.
