Mad River Trail

This short, easy trail closely parallels the Mad River, with two stairways up to a height of land offering interesting river views. It also features a footbridge made out of large stepping stones. Distance: 1 mile (one way) Time: 30 minutes The trail begins off the Mad River cross-country ski trail. From Town Square, cross the dam and turn right on the Village X-C Ski Trail, follow the trail through the tunnel, and then turn right on a bridge over Snows Brook. Continue straight over a second bridge, this one over the Mad River. To the right of where the ski trail rises up the hillside, the Mad River hiking trail heads into the woods. After a small bridge and a series of steep rock steps up to a plateau, the trail walks along the high and steep-sided glacial riverbank. It soon descends steeply on another long series of wooden steps, down to the river’s shore, crosses a rill without a bridge; and then, crosses over a small footbridge, and a larger footbridge at the confluence with the West Branch of the Mad River. The final section easily traces the river and ends at West Branch Road. https://www.waterville.com/easyhikes/2019/9/16/mad-river-path

Welch-Dickey Trailhead

This is a moderate hike that leads to the rocky summits of Welch and Dickey Mountains, offering stunning white mountain views in every direction. Distance: 4 Miles (Loop) Elevation Gain: 1,751 Feet Time: 2-4 Hours The trail begins at the parking lot off of Orris Road, just past the Gateway condominiums on Upper Mad River Road. Most people hike the trail counter-clockwise, and this description follows that direction. Bearing right at the beginning, it crosses a brook and traverses the foothills of Welch Mountain, and then begins to ascend by switchbacks, coming out onto "Welch Ledge," which offers a stunning view of the Mad River Valley and the Sandwich Range. From there, the trail rises more steeply among the rocks, with several difficult passages up the ledges, eventually crossing over the Welch summit, and continuing down into the col between the two peaks. After a short wooded section of conifers, it ascends steeply up to the Dickey summit, and then traces the rock ledge back into the woods. It gradually descends a mature hardwood forest back down to the parking lot. https://www.waterville.com/moderate-hikes/2019/6/11/welch-dickey-loop-c7a6k-jgnjj

Shortly after this you will continue ascending on a gentle grade. The Timber Camp Trail diverges from the Greeley Ponds trail on the left after you have ascended. The Greeley Ponds trail continues, and descends back down to the level of the Mad River, which it crosses on a bridge. For the rest of the hike to the ponds, the trail stays close to the diminishing river as it ascends the Mad River Notch. There are 6 wooden planked footbridges over rills and run-offs adding to the river; and then the trail descends some log steps and crosses the river (difficult in high water,) at a point where a cross country ski trail continues straight ahead (blazed blue,) The hiking trail enters the Greeley Ponds Scenic Area on the other side of the river, and is wet in several places as it passes to the left of the lower pond. Stay left as the trail forks and begins to ascend gradually to the upper pond. At the north end of the upper pond a spur path on the right leads down to a small beach. After enjoying the ponds you can head back the way you came, or If you’re feeling adventurous you can follow the trail all the way down the other side to the Kancamagus Highway. https://www.waterville.com/moderate-hikes/2019/6/11/greeley-ponds

Mount Tripyramid

The Tripyramid loop is a difficult hike. There are three summits: North Peak [4180 ft.], Middle Peak [4140 ft.], and South Peak [4100 ft.]. There are magnificent views from many points on this trail. Distance: 10.2 miles Elevation Gain: 2,903 feet Time: 5-7 hours The Mount Tripyramid Loop Trail begins in the Livermore Road parking lot. Walk past the information stand and fee area and turn left down the gravel path. You will follow Livermore Road for quite some time. As you hike up from the valley, there are two trailheads for Mount Tripyramid. The first, leads to the South Slide. You want the second, half an hour later, at a hairpin turn. It immediately descends down to Avalanche Brook, crosses it, and continues on a long traverse parallel to the brook to the bottom of the North Slide. It's recommended to ascend the North Slide and descend the South Slide, because the North Slide is extremely steep and exposed in sections, and more difficult to descend, especially in wet conditions. Once on the Slide, the trail is straight up and very steep on slabs and ledge rock. The easiest route is to begin on the left hand side, and angle toward the center and eventually end at the upper right-hand corner of the slide, where the trail re-enters the woods. The views are best before the slide narrows at the end. Once in the woods, there's a short steep section through thick conifers to the summit. Hiking across the summits is a beautiful undulating route, passing the Sabbaday Brook Trail junction on the left about half way across. Coming down from the South Peak is a short steep section through thick conifers. When descending the South Slide, which is steep, but not so precipitous as the North Slide, the Kate Sleeper Trail diverges to the left almost immediately. The Mount Tripyramid trail re-enters the woods at the bottom right of the slide. From there, it descends the steep mountainside on a long traverse, eventually joining an old logging road grade running parallel to the Slide Brook, before crossing Avalanche Brook (difficult in high water), just before it rejoins Livermore Road. https://www.waterville.com/new-blog/2019/6/11/mount-tripyramid

Kancamagus Highway

Designated as an American Scenic Byway (and one of our top things to do in NH!), the Kancamagus Highway is a 34.5-mile scenic drive along Route 112 that will leave you speechless. This winding road cuts right through the heart of White Mountain National Forest, and no matter what time of year you drive it, your eyes are in for a feast. In October, the “Kanc” is often considered one of the best places in the country to view some incredible fall foliage. Every bend in the road will reveal sweeping views of the White Mountains, Swift River, gorges and waterfalls, all decorated with brilliant reds, burnt oranges and golds. Traffic is a bit heavier during peak foliage season, so make sure to factor in at least 3 hours to drive the full length. https://newenglandwithlove.com/things-to-do-in-the-white-mountains-nh/

Mount Washington

Ah, Mount Washington. The pride and joy of New Hampshire! This 6288’ mountain is the tallest peak in the Northeast and home to the fastest wind gust ever recorded on earth, at 231 mph. It’s also the muse for the famous “This Car Climbed Mt. Washington” bumper sticker. There are two spectacular ways to explore Mount Washington (besides just hiking it!). Take the historical Mount Washington Cog Railway for an unforgettable train ride to the summit. The Cog has been taking passengers up the mountain for over 150 years now. In less than an hour, this thrilling ride will bring you to the summit, where you can get out and take pictures or just enjoy the sights. If riding up a steep mountain on a 150-year-old railway isn’t your cup of tea, why not drive your own vehicle? The Mount Washington Auto Road is a scenic road that starts at the base and takes you along a winding path up to the summit. This historic drive is a 7.6-mile ascent that takes roughly 30 minutes, and every bend in the road will offer a unique view of the White Mountains. Keep in mind, there is a toll charge at the base of the road. https://newenglandwithlove.com/things-to-do-in-the-white-mountains-nh/

If riding up a steep mountain on a 150-year-old railway isn’t your cup of tea, why not drive your own vehicle? The Mount Washington Auto Road is a scenic road that starts at the base and takes you along a winding path up to the summit. This historic drive is a 7.6-mile ascent that takes roughly 30 minutes, and every bend in the road will offer a unique view of the White Mountains. Keep in mind, there is a toll charge at the base of the road. https://newenglandwithlove.com/things-to-do-in-the-white-mountains-nh/
