In 2016, the Town of Dorset acquired 260 acres to expand Owls Head Town Forest. The Town has partnered with Vermont Youth Conservation Corps, the Vermont Land Trust, and the Dorset Historical Society to develop a trail network that illustrates the historic, cultural, ecological, and recreational values of the Town Forest. The main trail follows an old road up to Gettysburg Quarry and beyond to Owls Head and Gilbert Lookout.
The AllTrails website has a description and map of a hike to Owls Head and Gilbert Lookout at Owls Head Town Forest.
