Head out on this 4.3-mile loop trail near Cold Spring, New York. Generally considered a moderately challenging route, it takes an average of 2 h 25 min to complete.

We start the trail counter-clockwise eventually reaching the ruins of the Cornish estate. For more info: [Abandoned NY The ruins of Northgate the Cornish estate in the Hudson Valley](http://untappedcities.com/2014/04/30/abandoned-ny-the-ruins-of-northgate-the-cornish-estate-in-the-hudson-valley/)

On our return we have the option to cross over the road to Little Stony Point loop, with plenty of swimming options for the dogs.

Remember to bring plenty of water for your companion and yourself. Dress according to the forecast. If snow or ice is on the trail you must bring spikes!
