Tiadaghton Trail
The Tiadaghton Trail was one of several trails constructed by Boy Scouts at Camp Kline following the establishment of the camp in 1920. After the camp was no longer used by scouts, the trail was abandoned. With considerable help from DCNR Conservation Volunteers, the trail was re-established and is now well maintained. The original Tiadaghton Trail was blazed with a red circle and a white T in the center. These blazes can still be found throughout the length of the trail. However, the current markers are 2″x6″ yellow blazes, indicating a hiking-only district trail.
The Tiadaghton and Mid State trails can be combined to form a 23 mile backpacking loop, from Ramsey Village to Little Pine State Park and back to Ramsey Village. Hikers may also choose adjacent trails to form shorter hiking loops for day hikes. Some of the more popular side trails include the Gleason Trail, the Dry Run Trail, the Torbert Trail, the Old Wagon Rd, and the Love Run Trail.
Backpackers may camp at established campsites near the former Camp Kline or Little Pine State Park. Permits are required at these sites. Contact the Tiadaghton Resource Management Center in Waterville to receive a free permit. Little Pine State Park offers tent sites, cabins, and yurts for a fee. Contact Little Pine State Park for more information.
