Callahan Brook Trail

Callahan Brook Trail

It might be challenging to follow at times, but this trail offers solitude and beautiful scenery.

Getting there

From the intersection of Route 28 and Route 30 in Indian Lake follow Route 30 toward Speculator. Continue for just over 16-miles to Jessup River Road (dirt) on the right. Follow here to the first major campsite on the right, park here.

Hiking

This trail is not recommended for some users, not because of difficulty but because of difficulty to follow. From the campground locate the trail at the back side, it is not signed or marked and not frequently used. This trail is used mainly for short jaunts in the woods and to access the Miami River. The hike is relatively easy as far as difficulty but, as mentioned, tough to follow at times with a very narrow tread.

The Miami River is a wonderful river for photography, birding, and fishing. At the end of the trail you would have to ford the river. On the opposite side a faint path continues but is much harder to follow.
