Brace Mountain is located in Taconic State Park, near the state borders of Connecticut and Massachusetts. The park is open daily from sunrise to sunset, weather permitting.
With a summit of 2,311 feet, Brace Mountain is the highest in the county, with a sub-summit of 2,304 feet, located just south of the true summit, with better views in that direction.
Brace Mountain is accessible via several routes, including the Mount Frissell trail, the South Taconic Trail, or the Alander Mountain Trail.
These various options make it quite easy to summit three peaks in three different states, all in one hike. Brace Mountain is also quite close to the famous Appalachian Trail.
