Big Branch Wilderness

The Big Branch Wilderness is one of eight wilderness areas in the Green Mountain National Forest in the U.S. state of Vermont. It was created by the Vermont Wilderness Act of 1984 and later expanded by the New England Wilderness Act of 2006. A total of 6725 acre are managed by the U.S. Forest Service.

The Long Trail (which coincides with the Appalachian Trail in this region) crosses a portion of the wilderness from Griffith Lake at its eastern boundary to Ten Kilns Brook at its northern edge. The wilderness is traversed by several other hiking trails including the Griffith Lake Trail, Lake Trail, Baker Peak Trail, and the Old Job Trail.

There are several summits surpassing 2500 ft in elevation. The highest peak is Mount Tabor at 3043 ft, which is located at the south end of the wilderness.
