One of my favorite trails within an hour of Boston! On a clear day, you can see Massachusetts, New Hampshire, and Maine from the coast. Easy trails, a convenient parking lot, and plenty of opportunities to turn it into a full-day adventure exploring Rockport afterward

Great distance to Franconia Ridge, the Osceolas, and Squam Lake hikes. Road ends up a little noisy at night (our campsite was near the road so that could have been it!). No site for washing dishes in the bathroom, you’ll have to do it by your campsite.

One of my absolute favorites! First hike I took my husband on when we were friends! Check out the Moosilauke Ravine hut before or after your hike.

Gorgeous man-made lake at the top of Holiday Valley. Trail can be accessed via the parking lot at the end of HV road!

THE white mountains picture at the top, BUT be warned, though it is stunning in the fall, it becomes ungoldly crowded on the weekends. Lost a star for that! Otherwise short, fun hike.

An out-and-back, not too many views at the top

Mt. Tecumseh is the shortest (4,000 foot-er though it’s always getting threatened to get kicked off the NH48 list) and sits right at the top of Waterville Valley. It’s a quick hike, but don’t expect a true summit view. If you’re craving scenery, you’ll get better views off the ski slopes, and it seems like some of the trees near the summit have been trimmed back over time to open things up just a bit. This is a great option for an easy day trip or when you want to squeeze in a short hike. That said, if you’re not chasing the 4,000-footers, there are other trails in the area that offer more bang for your hike, in my opinion. Still any hike is a good hike, I believe. I’ve done this one twice, and it was a great trail to test out in winter.

One of the very first hikes I did in 2020. We started at sunrise to beat the crowds. Such a fun trail with lots of exposed, ledgy sections that make it feel adventurous without being overwhelming. I went back in 2025 and hiked it in the rain… and honestly, would not recommend. The wet ledges made it significantly more challenging, and when thunder started rumbling in the distance, it all felt a bit sketchy. I knew it would be rainy that day and didn't listen to my own advice so this is more of a "choose something else in the rain" warning rather than anything else.

Pretry steep at the top! A tab bit scrambly but great 360 views!

Off the beaten path and absolutely stunning! Extremely cliffy and not well-marked for that reason, insane drops on the side with no guards.

10/10 Acadia classic for a reason, if you don’t make summit for the sunrise on an early morning hike there’s plenty of spots along the top of the North Ridge trail

The Bar Harbor namesake! Super fun trail and kid-friendly! You can hike all the way across and do a small trail on the island across. MUST check the tides before you go, only accessible in low tide.
