The trail markings seem a bit lacking. You must refer to the map.

Really pretty. $10 to park. Exorbitant to say the least. Might want to carpool.

There is a new 2 miles loop, blazed in blue. It stars at the trailhead on Taylor Road. Sweet Clover and Jessup trails can be accessed from Otterkill Road. Hikers are not allowed to cross the rails any more.

This is a loop trail that brushes against the train tracks and meanders through some beautiful wide fields. The field sections can make pathfinding a little tricky. This trail does not go up the mountain as of October 2022.

There are a lot of old mining caves around, and Native Wigwams. Check the historic registry

how much time until the peak?

Depends where you start from and how well you move. Some places there are a lot of flat spots. Start from Otterkill parking and it will be faster. Get a map and have a compass.

Can you bike ride in there?

The rules are posted on a bulletin in the parking lot. I remember seeing no horses and motorized vehicles. I dont think bikes are allowed either(although if they were I would not, lots of really sharp cliffs and old trails) I would check the board. It updates often

WILL THIS TRAILHEAD LEAD TO THE TOP OF THE MOUNTAIN?

Yes, both Yellow (Jessop) and White (Sweet Clover) trails go to the top, and connect with the Megaliths trail and the Western Ridge trail.
