This access point on Haselton Road (near Black Brook, about 5. 7 miles from Wilmington) provides a trailhead to the West Branch Ausable River via an 0. 8-mile hiking trail through Wilmington Wild Forest, with a parking pullout available.

The trail offers a level forest walk for the first half-mile, then descends to river access with classic Adirondack scenery featuring riffles and boulders suitable for fishing and picnicking.

Additional exploration opportunities exist via old roads and state lands downstream for more experienced hikers and paddlers.
