Confirmed from Mount Agamenticus Conservation Region's own listing, the park or land manager's website, and runner reviews. Blank cells mean we could not verify that fact — we would rather say "not reported" than invent one. There is no Easy / Moderate / Hard rating on this page on purpose: a one-word difficulty score tells you nothing about whether a trail suits your run. Surface, distance, shade and hours do.
Stunning eco-destination known for its expansive, panoramic views, dense landscape & hiking trails.
What runners say about Mount Agamenticus Conservation Region
“With great views from New Hampshire to Massachusetts, you shouldn’t miss an opportunity to see New England from this Point of View!”
“Secondly, there are multiple viewpoint platforms, renewal spaces are clearly marked so that they are easily identified and avoided.”
“With newly constructed interpretive signage, the areas are accessible for all ages to learn and explore.”
Absolutely incredible. First of all... you can drive all of the way to the top, and there are views and visual prompts that are clear and accessible. Secondly, there are multiple viewpoint platforms, renewal spaces are clearly marked so that they are easily identified and avoided.
This spot have been a fave for many years. If you come before 5:00 p.m. there's usually a little farm stand that is just past the entryway and it's a sweet little stop.
What a great find this was! The people hiking were polite and friendly. It is dog friendly and everyone followed the on leash rule which was great for our reactive ½ of the Blue and Chunk duo 🐕🐕 The view was fantastic and the lookout spots were great.
Very nice hiking trails! lots of ascending rock paths that are slightly more than beginner level but overall the paths are very walkable. Going from Hill A which has a nice gravel loop path for casual walking to Hill B and C is a good 3 hours or so of hiking. Nice restroom facilities at the base.
