 | Comments: |
The New Path trail is pretty eroded in places however it is a fun trail for avid hikers. It is a very steep trail climbing 1500 feet in one mile. There is also a long section of loose shale adding to the challenge. This is not a trail for beginner hikers. The Doublehead Ski Trail would be a better choice. |
