Parking area on US 7 near the intersection of CT 4 on the west side of the Housatonic River. Overnight Parking is permitted here. This is actually the trail head for the section of the Mohawk Trail that leads over Breadloaf Mountain to the AT. However it is also the best parking for accessing the AT at mm 11.3 (Old Sharon Road) and mm 11.5 (AT crossing of CT 4). These points are 0.5 - 0.7 miles from the parking area.
