Maple Sugarbush Hiking Trail

The Sugarbush Hill Hiking Trail is accessible by making a monetary donation in the Maple Shop.

Use of the trail is only during regular business hours.  Admittance to the trail ends at 3:30 as we close at 4:00 P.M.

This hiking trail through our maple sugarbush is a unique opportunity for the general public to see the vast collection system that connects thousands of trees via a network of food-grade tubing transporting maple sap to our sugarhouse for processing. There are 17 sugarbush signs throughout the hiking trail explaining how Natives and pioneers wood have used certain trees and their wood in their daily lives.

Sugarbush Hiking Trail is 1.2 km, difficulty is easy to moderate, and takes about 30-40 minutes. Please follow the instructions posted at the beginning of the trail and take a photo of the sign. We adhere to the “Leave No Trace” principles. Leave no garbage and take everything out that you brought in. No food is allowed which includes Maple Creemees.

It is suggested that you wear long pants and a long-sleeved shirt. Have proper footwear, there are a few wetter areas. Have your insect repellant available during the months of May-August.
