Pisgah Ridge and Reservoir Loop
8.8 mile lollypop hike
Details
Join us for this refreshing 8.8 mile lollypop hike.
We will start hiking on a wide well maintained trail that heads up Kilburn Loop.
We will continue until we meet with the Pisgah Ridge Connector which we will follow to the Pisgah Ridge Trail.
At the junction of the ridge we will get on the Pisgah Ridge trail in the easterly direction and follow it to reservoir road. At reservoir road we will now turn our overall direction north westerly as we follow reservoir road to connect with the Baker Pond trail.
From there we hike up Baker Pond trail back to the Pisgah Ridge Trail and follow that back to the connector trail down to Kilburn Loop.
It's generally an easy to moderate hike. Micro spikes will be required just for the sake of safety and preparedness.
The hike will take about 4 hours to complete at a relaxed pace.
This will be my first hike to lead with GO so I hope to have an excited response from the club. If so we can probably expect more to come.
Directions
We meet at the Kilburn trailhead on route 63 in Hinsdale just north (3.8mi) of Hinsdale NH center OR 3.8mi south of Chesterfield NH. Parking for this trailhead is on the east side of route 63 and is well marked with an official State Park trailhead sign.
