Trail Overview
Cheney Mountain is a compact CATS hike near Moriah that delivers more variety than its mileage suggests. The 1.9-mile round-trip trail climbs steadily through forest to a summit ridge with multiple open viewpoints, including looks toward Lake Champlain, the Green Mountains, and nearby Adirondack terrain. The route feels moderately effortful for its length but remains approachable for hikers seeking a short summit-style outing.
