Mt Olga Fire Tower, Marlboro VT

• 4-star hikes • 1 to 2 mile options • Moderate | Gain 280 to 530 feet • Marlboro, VT | Southern Region . Hanging out atop the Mount Olga Fire Tower. The summit of Mount Olga is capped by a fire lookout tower with an open cabin for hikers year-round, offering expansive views of Mount Snow, the Deerfield Valley, and the Green Mountains on clear days. It's a short hike for a big reward, and we describe three different routes to reach it. The Molly State Park Loop is the classic approach and starts at a trailhead with bathrooms and picnic tables, though a state park fee applies. From the Hogback and Mt Olga Trailhead Parking on Molly Stark Trail Road, parking is free but there are no facilities on site. The presence of the Hogback Mountain Country Store and Vermont Distillers sitting just across the road might compensate however. Both Tower Trail routes begin here.
