From intersection of routes 83 and 190, go north on 83 for 2.6 miles. Turn right onto Hampden Road for 0.8 miles, turn right onto Stafford Road for 0.7 miles. Parking is on the left just after 292 Stafford Road. This is a Five Town Land Trust Preserve.

This is a loop trail with an awesome overlook to the left. So go left and follow yellow to the top. This is marked by piles of rocks, good view, fire pit? and a cement slab that once had a castle sitting on it. After catching your breath and enjoying the view of the CT. River valley, go to the slab and take 25 steps (in the direction you were going). Look right for a three sister evergreen. Walk among some large rocks to get to this tree. Look behind it under a flat rock for another castle.
