Directions to trailhead: Take I-89 to Exit 10 in Waterbury. Take 100 south, then take a right onto Winsooki Street. Cross over the river, then take a right onto River Road. A few miles later, take a left onto Camel's Hump Road. The winter parking area entrance will be a few minutes up the road on the left. In spring and early summer 2011, the summer parking lots were closed to vehicles due to a washed out road.
