This hike is this 1.8-mile out-and-back. It crosses a field before entering the woods for a steady climb to the summit. Follow this road as it moderately but steadily climbs to higher ground. After the short uphill that is a spur trail to an excellent view that's worth checking out. The summit is not much farther, and it's wooded, but if you follow the trail just beyond the summit, you have two great views — one of the High Peaks with the tailings piles of the old mine in the foreground, and the other of the Champlain Bridge and Vermont.
