Ohly Roller is an easy hike of about 2.8 miles in Vermont's Rochester Ranger District, part of the Green Mountain and Finger Lakes National Forests. The trail is managed by the Forest Service and runs on natural surface, and it is open from May 1 to November 1. The route rises about 72 feet from a starting point near 1,571 feet to a high point of about 1,638 feet. The steepest stretch comes at about 1.2 miles in, with a grade of about 10 percent. Bikes are allowed. Summer is the most comfortable time to go. Typical averages from a nearby weather station in Rutland show July highs around 80°F and lows near 56°F, and the station sits well below the trail, so temperatures on the route run cooler. Paca's Path and Pond View both start within a quarter mile. Climbers can find Regular Boulder about a mile away, and paddlers can reach the Ottauquechee River within about 5 miles.
