True to its name, the Grind Trail is the steepest route to the summit of Giant’s Head Mountain. It climbs quickly through exposed hillside terrain, offering a solid workout and impressive lake views as you gain elevation. The trail is well maintained but demanding — bring water, take breaks at the benches, and be prepared for a steady climb from start to finish.
