This trail is not recommended for people without good wayfinding skills. The trail is not regularly blazed or maintained.

There is a small parking lot near the Devil’s Slide trailhead on Northside Road, but no Forest Society sign or kiosk. The trail is straight into the woods going east from the parking area.

Trail Directions:

Devil's Slide Trailhead

Enter the woods on what appears to be an old road. The entry of the trail is currently marked with blue ribbons, and the trail itself is marked with pink ribbon. The trail will “T”, at which point you turn left. After another hundred or so yards, the trail turns right and goes up the hill. The trail gets steeper at you go further up the slide. Continue to the top of Devil’s Slide, a large vertical rock formation that looms over the village. Exercise EXTREME CAUTION as you reach the summit, as the drop-off the south side of the slide is nearly vertical. Return to your car by the same route.

Accessibility Description

This trail has uneven surfaces, possible hazards (i.e. downed trees or branches) and may be muddy at certain times of the year. Parking areas and pull offs are not typically plowed in winter months, and trails may be inaccessible due to lack of safe, off-road parking at this time of year.
