Yellow LoopThis loop, 1.4 miles long, begins at the parking area on the east side of Knowlton Hill Road, enters the hay field that covers the top of Knowlton Hill, follows the edge of the field, enters the woods, and skirts the edge of Knowlton Pond going north and then west. A wooden bridge crosses a seasonal stream above a vernal pool. The trail turns west and crosses Knowlton Hill Road to enter the woods again 50 yards south. It passes a small pond, crosses over a stream and emerges onto the road again near the parking area.
