Dog Mountain, Home of Stephen Huneck Gallery

Dog park

👍👍 This place is a GEM in Vermont! My Aunt recommended it and she was so right! Not only is the art and chapel a sight to behold but the nice trail walk is splendid too. We loved seeing all of the love for long lost fur kids. It brought tears to all of our eyes, not for the sadness but the beauty and l...

Mount Major Trail

Hiking area

👍👍 This hike’s popularity is well deserved. I hiked with a group of friends on a cloudier day. The hike itself was moderately hard with some sections where you need to use some hands if theres been rain recently. The top view is amazing even with cloudy weather. Recommend packing a lunch and eating it...

Welch-Dickey Trailhead

Hiking area

👍👍 Amazing views! Highly recommend!! My boyfriend and I hiked it in 2.25 hours with a couple of stops to sit, eat, and take in the 360 mountain views. Its definitely got some steep rock climbs that are a little challenging. Wouldn't recommend bringing a dog unless they are more experienced hikers. One...

Clover Brooke Llama Alpaca Hike/Goat Walk Farm

Farm

👍👍 My girlfriend and I loved Clover Brooke Farm! We attended the yoga and lavender loofah experience and it was just what we had hoped for. Virginia, the yoga instructor, was extremely friendly and the class was at a beginners level and was so relaxing. It was fun to have the llamas sit next to you whi...

Beaver Brook Association

Non-profit organization

😐 Let’s not replace all of the bridges with poured concrete, please. I liked this area when it looked like a part of nature, now it’s an eyesore on the trail.

Ashokan Rail Trail- Boiceville Bridge Trailhead

Hiking area

👍👍 Beautiful trail for a walk or run or even a bike ride. We only walked an hour and back and there was no elevation change so don’t come here if you’re looking for a hike. Plenty of tree cover if you’re don’t want to be stuck in the sun, too.

4.90 (132 reviews) (~247.27 km from centre)

Wapack National Wildlife Refuge

Hiking area

👍👍 Great spot to go hiking. You can always take the quick Northern Terminus which is 2.8mi out and back or wander over to the cliff loop which sports fantastic views of monadnock and the region.

4.90 (124 reviews) (~31.32 km from centre)

Ammonoosuc Ravine Trailhead

Hiking area

👍👍 The trailhead may not be very interesting but the Ammonoosuc Ravine Trail itself the blast in the winter. Yes it's a long climb up but sliding back down makes you think you're young again. Be warned there are very steep sections on the way up. Make sure you're in the right shape and have the right...

Intervale Center

Non-profit organization

👍👍 Wow, really interesting little local festival. Jam band music, family friendly, kids everywhere, microbrewery tents, and foodie food trucks with award winners galore. All locally sourced, and even had educational people running around explaining about their compostable plastic-type dinnerware. Fr...

Piper Trailhead

Hiking area

👍👍 The Piper Trail is a challenging trail that summits Mt. Chocorua (3,500 ft.) in 4.3 miles and 2,700 ft. of elevation gain. Camp Penacook Shelter can be reached by following the Piper Trail for 2.8 miles to a marked spur trail leading to the 3-sided lean-to and outhouse. I took Weetamoo to Hamond and...

Mount Willard

Hiking area

👍👍 Perfect morning hike with our 12 year old. The view is awesome. We started at 9 am and had the summit to ourselves for a few minutes. Passed a lot of people headed up as we descended. So going early is much quieter.

👍👍 The start of the trail up Mount Pierce, my favorite 4K ever. Moderate hike, amazing views of the presidentials

The Cliff Walk

Hiking area

👍👍 Great day for a walk, the ocean breeze was just enough to keep us cool while enjoying the breath taking sights! So much to see, the beautiful trails, mansions, landscapes, and natural vistas. Amazing. Walked the entire thing. Make sure to have good tennis or hiking shoes, sunscreen, and water. This...
