Loop Hike to Jennings Peak
7.5 mile Loop Hike to Jennings Peak via Sandwich Mt Trail and Drake’s Brook Trail
Details
Join us for one of our favorite hikes to Jennings Peak in Waterville Valley. We will take the Sandwich Mountain Trail 1.6 miles to Noon Peak and then continue 1.4 miles to Jennings Peak for lunch and great views. There is 1550 feet of elevation gain in the first 1.6 miles, so this section is steep (average grade 19%). Afterwards we will take the gentle Drakes Brook trail down, which goes along Drakes Brook for most of the way. The hike is a 7.5 mile loop with about 2000 feet of elevation gain.
Directions
You can put "Sandwich Mountain Trailhead" into your GPS. From I-93, take exit 28 and travel east (toward Waterville Valley) on Rt 49 for 9.9 miles. The trailhead is on the right.
