Mount Monadnock

Celebrate Monadnock and its long legacy of natural and cultural history.

Even with the threat of rain and storms, volunteers accomplished major trail structural improvements and retained important ecosystems at Mount Monadnock and Gap Mountain during this year’s event.

Trail improvement projects are planned all over the mountain in this weeklong event.

Trail improvements were made at Mt. Monadnock and Gap Mountain despite intense heat and humidity.

The Renaissance for the MSG began in 1974.

An annual celebration of all things Monadnock starts July 30.

We are grateful to the 100 hikers who helped us kick off a new decade on our land on January 1, 2020 at the First Day Hike on Mt.

Start 2020 off on your best foot!  Join NH State Parks staff and Forest Society staff and land stewards for a 3-mile hike along the Parker Trail to the Little Mountain Viewpoint on Mount Monadnock.  You'll start the hike with a glimpse of Poole Reservoir and continue on following rolling hills and old stone walls as you round the base of Mt. Monadnock towards the Old Toll Rd. This hike will take approximately 3 hours to complete. For those looking for a more leisurely hike, follow the Parker Trail to the Cliff Walk Junction and back.
