GetWinter Hike #2: Pawtuckaway Hike
Our 2nd GetWinter Hikes takes us to Pawtuckway State Park in Nottingham, NH
Details
This 7-mile hike loop hike includes North Mountain (1011') with Devils Den, huge boulders in the Boulder Field, scenic Round Pond and a climb up the firetower at South Mountain (908').
Almost two hours from Boston, Pawtuckaway State Park offers some great hiking opportunities. Note that this park does NOT allow dogs.
The summits provide fantastic views of the ocean, White Mountains and the surrounding area.
Terrain: The climb up both North and South Mountain can be steep otherwise the hike is on moderate terrain sometimes using the park's gravel roads.
Meeting Place: We will meet at the Dunkin Donuts located off Exit 5 on Route 101 at 9:30am. Head north after exiting 101 (< 1/2 mile). Dunkin Donuts will be on the left. From there we can head to the trailhead.
Time/Distance: Hike time is approximately 6 hours. Round-trip distance is 7 miles with about 1,000 feet total elevation gain. Overall this is a relaxing walk in the woods and yet rewarding with awesome views.
Gear List: Snowshoes/micro spikes are a must!! Gloves, extra clothing layers, hat and most importantly, plenty of water, and a lunch/snacks for the hike.
