Tunk Mountain Ridge Trail Map

Tunk Mountain is a moderately difficult hike that goes around a couple ponds on the way to the summit with gorgeous views of the surrounding mountains and ponds. Some trail maps show this as a loop hike but the only trail that is maintained is the out and back trail shown here. It's especially gorgeous in the fall.
