MOUNTAIN ADVENTURE: Swope Park to Winant Connector
ABOUT THE EVENT:
New this year, we are introducing monthly mountain adventures based on survey feedback from members. You wanted something more challenging so we are rolling out new events through the fall to explore some of New Hampshire’s most beautiful small and large mountains.
This mountain hike is approximately a 5.9 mile loop at Marjory Swope Park in Concord, NH. Adventure guides Alyssa and Kelly will leave Swope Park and hike to Winant Park and then take the Winant Connector trail which has great mountain views. The elevation gain will be 800-1000 ft. This is a moderate hike and our guides will be moving at a constant pace with stops for water breaks as needed. This event is only recommended for avid mountain climbers since you will ascend and descend several hills as you climb in elevation. Please also make sure that your dog is used to this distance and elevation. This hike is not for “weekend warriors“. See Trail Map.
