Hiking the Locke’s Loop trail

Sign showing start of Locke’s Loop trail

This loop trail on land conserved by Hilltown Land Trust is open to the public and connects to a network of trails at the Petticoat Hill Reservation, a property of our affiliate organization The Trustees. Locke’s Loop trail is accessible from the trailhead at Petticoat Hill Reservation on Petticoat Hill Road in Williamsburg.

Over a mile and a half of occasionally steep and strenuous trails traverse these two properties. Locke’s Loop trail was constructed by the Williamsburg Wood Trails Committee.

HLT protected the trail with a conservation restriction donated by Sandra Warren and her late husband Jim Locke.

Download a trail map of Petticoat Hill Reservation and the connecting Locke’s Loop trail from The Trustees website before you visit.
