This small stretch connects to the MacNeil Loop Trail and the western side of the Homestead Trail, which has open views and makes for a shorter and quieter loop than the full Homestead Trail.

The Fox Trot Trail is a gentle woodland singletrack of roughly 0.6 km that flows through mixed trees and works well as a short leg-stretcher or a link between longer loops. Begin from the main parking area, follow the signed access to the trail network, and keep an ear out for bikes on this shared path. In winter, it’s a pleasant, low-effort snowshoe when conditions are firm.

Glasgow Hills’ multi-use trails weave through mixed forest and open ridgelines with wide views over pastoral farmland and New London Bay—great for a short hike with a bit of elevation. Practical tip: park just beyond the back corner of the main lot and stick to the marked, open trails; in winter these paths are also used for hiking/snowshoeing, so check conditions.

The access road from Brackley Beach to Robinsons Island may be closed seasonally, such as after storm damage from Hurricane Fiona. The hike then extends by approximately seven kilometers, which must be completed on foot from Brackley Beach there and back.
