Debsconeag Lakes Wilderness Area Ice Caves

Know Before You Go

Drive down Baxter Park Road (like you are driving to the Southern entrance of Baxter Park) until you reach the large painted rock. Take a left at the rock onto the dirt road, and then a right onto the Golden Road, a large dirt/paved road. Drive until you reach Abol Bridge. After crossing the bridge, turn onto the dirt road on the left and follow the road for a little less than 3 miles. Bear left when the road splits and drive about a mile to the parking area on the right. The trail starts a short distance from the parking area, on the other side of a rock barrier. The trail is blue-blazed. About half way down the trail, the trail intersects with a wide, grassy trail. Turn left. A blue blaze on a boulder will confirm you’re going the right direction. Look for the trail to head back into the woods. Always follow the blue blazes.
