From Vermont Route 73 at Brandon Gap, take the Long Trail north to a blue-blazed spur trail that leads out to the Cliffs. The trail climbs steadily upward, but the excellent view at the top makes the trip worthwhile. From March to August of most years, the cliffs are closed to protect nesting Peregrine falcons.

 

 

Trailhead: Take Route 100 south to its junction with Route 73. Follow Route 73 west for 8.8 miles to the top of Brandon Gap. Trailhead parking is on the left, on the east side of the gap. Please secure valuables in your vehicle, as this lot experiences vandalism. The trail starts on the other side of Route 73. Overlook parking is at 8.7 miles.
