About This Destination

Built in the 1930s by workers who needed a safer way to reach the quarry above Jack's Narrows, the Thousand Steps trail is a steep climb through history. Numbers painted on a few steps help motivate climbers as they ascend to 1,000 (plus 37 more!). This trail is part of the 80-mile Standing Stone Trail. Grab a sturdy walking stick, which will help on your climb and during your descent.
