Mount Haystack Trail 184 Upper Dam Road, Wilmington, VT 05363

"Challenging hike over many rocky washes and roots I didn't mind. The hike is about 2 miles in from the street and 2 miles out. The pay off is the beautiful scenic view at the summit which is a large rock. The trailhead is in the Chimney Hill neighborhood just past the clubhouse. It's worth the effort."

"I really enjoyed this hike, I went towards the end of September and the leaves were BEAUTIFUL! The summit area is very small, and it was super crowded when I got to the top. The trails are well groomed & although it was hazy, I enjoyed the view at the top of the mountain. It's about 2 miles up, steady incline all the way some gravel at first. Heavily trafficked, at least on the weekends so bring your mask! Oh, FYI parking is along the dirt road. I got there at 93AM & there were about 10 cars...the whole street was lined with cars when I got down around noon."

"Pretty nice hike. Even during winter not that difficult. We were up and down in 2,5-3 hours because of my 10 year old, otherwise it would be under 2 hours. The trail was clean and marked well - impossible to get lost. The view was very good. The whole trail is approximately 4.7 miles. Definitely recommend because of the view!"

"Easy 4 mile (round trip) up and back hike. No scrambles, easy terrain. Not terribly well-marked trail, but it's a well worn path, so getting lost isn't a concern. Summit provides decent views, about 150 degrees. Expect a fairly busy trail, no parking area for the trailhead."
