Trail Overview

Arnold Pond is a very short but steep hike near Eagle Lake and Route 74 in the Hammond Pond area. The primary outing is about 0.6 miles round trip, climbing quickly to the southern shore of Arnold Pond with cliffs of Skiff Mountain visible across the water. It is a quick stop, but the grade makes it feel steeper than its distance suggests.
