This trail is open to hikers, horseback riders, mountain bikers, and backcountry campers. The route ambles through a mountain meadow and then follows a ridgeline providing spectacular view of the Gardner Mountain Wilderness Study Area . The trail mostly follows old two-tracks and then dips down below the ridge before coming back up. The trail is not well-marked; be sure to carry a map and compass, and please respect private property boundary signs.
Gardner Mountain Trail is primarily first-come, first-served. Use the availability view to gauge how busy it is before you go.
