Nearest first. Where a lot sits on a trail that reaches the summit area, that trail is named. Distances are in a straight line from the summit and ignore terrain.

Trails that reach the summit area

• Owls Head Trail 0.2 mi · 130 ft climb · about 10 min
• Owls Head Trail 1.5 mi · 250 ft climb · about 45 min
• Cross Vermont Trail 4.5 mi · 310 ft climb · about 2 h

A trail is listed if it passes within 1,969 ft of the mapped summit. That includes trails that only cross the ridge, so look at the map before choosing. Climb and time are estimates for the whole trail, not just the stretch to the top.
