Brett Woods has an extensive trail system. Many of the trails follow the contours of the land, roughly paralleling the ridge and valley system. In some instances, however, the trails cross directly over the ridge line as does the trail that follows the old North Street roadbed. Surface conditions on the trails include bare mineral soil, wet or moist soil, loose gravelly surfaces, ledge outcrops, and grassy areas. The trails vary in length, condition, and degree of difficulty so take care when hiking.
The Yellow perimeter trail is almost two miles long. The Red Trail cuts diagonally across the property and is about 1¼ miles long. The Blue Trail is shorter at about a ½ mile and passes through the camping area.
