Rattlesnake Cliffs and Aunt Jenny Trail: 1.6 miles (3-4.5 hours round trip). Starting at the Silver Lake / Falls of Lana parking area off Route 53 south of Branbury State Park, go up past the Falls of Lana to the Silver Lake trail and take a left over the bridge onto the Rattlesnake Cliffs Trail, and either continue up it past the North Branch Trail, or take the next left on the Aunt Jenny Trail to where it eventually rejoins the Rattlesnake Cliff Trail above. After a short distance, the Rattlesnake Cliffs Trail will be on the left. Take that and go to both overlooks where you will get spectacular views of Silver Lake, Lake Dunmore, the Champlain Valley, and the Adirondacks. Return either on the Rattlesnake Cliffs Trail or the Aunt Jenny Trail. Use Restrictions: No horses, mountain bikes, or motorized vehicles.
Note: From March to August some years the trail to the cliffs is close to protect nesting Peregrine Falcons.
Please check current trail and road closures in the Green Mountain National Forest.
