If you’re coming from the old parking lot, walk downhill on the Saratoga Gap Trail and make a left on the Castle Rock Trail in 600 feet. Follow it uphill for 1,000 feet, then make a right on the first intersecting trail. Again, although it branches off, stay on the main trail and you’ll find the rocks.
