Elf Meadow Loop Trail
The trail comes out ~0.4 miles from the parking lot on Orchard rd. There's a red blaze spur trail that you can take back to complete the loop as well, but it was overgrown when I went.
There's also a connection to the Brookfield Trail which is a 1.4 mile trail that leads over to S.E. St in Amherst.
