🍂 🎃 Come visit us this fall to hike Mt. Monadnock, located just minutes from us! 🍂 🎃

Mount Monadnock tends to entice non-hikers onto its wilderness trails with the allure of 360-degree views and fun rock scrambles to the summit.

And despite its reputation as one of the most popular mountain climbs in the world, hiking Mount Monadnock is not exactly easy. It does, however, provide hikers with incredible views after only two miles of huffing and puffing.

Hiking Mount Monadnock, the most prominent peak in southern New Hampshire at 3,165 feet, is a community event, even if you arrive at the trailhead solo.
