On National Trails Day in 1999, an adjacent 116 acres (47 ha) parcel of watershed land called Maplecrest Unit in the Town of Windham was opened for hiking by the New York City Department of Environmental Protection, allowing for unobstructed views.[4] To view by car, the closest road to the north and east is County Route 40. To the south is Round Hills Road, and to the west past Round Hill is New York State Route 296. Batavia Kill runs along the northern slope, and the tributaries of East Kill lie south.
