This out and back hike travels into Giant's Ledges Pocket Park.  To access the Lime Kiln trail, park at the Joppenbergh Mountain parking area.  Cross Binnewater Road and take the access trail a short distance to the Wallkill Valley Rail Trail.  Turn right onto the Rail Trail and follow for .75 miles.  The Lime Kiln trail is on the right.

Follow the Lime Kiln trail for about one mile.  The trail will continue to Bonticou Mountain.  On the left is a ledge and nice view point.  The Lime Kiln Trail ends here. Turn back at this point and follow the route taken in.
