Fall Foliage Hike up Red Hill

Enjoy the cool autumn air and changing leaf colors by joining the Squam Lakes Association for a ~3.5 mile round-trip guided hike to the summit of Red Hill from 10:00 AM - 2:00 PM on Saturday, September 27th! From the top of the 2,030 ft summit's fire tower there is a stunning 360 degree view of Squam Lake, Lake Winnipesaukee, the Ossipee Range, and the Sandwich Range. We will have a lunch/snack break while taking in the views before making our descent.

Participants will meet at the Red Hill Parking Area at 10:00 AM, located on Red Hill Road in Moultonborough, NH. All are welcome on this guided hike, but it is recommended for participants that are comfortable with uneven terrain and moderate to strenuous changes in elevation, as we will climb about 1,350 ft. Children must be accompanied by an adult.

Registration is required for this free event.

My name is Danielle Dexter and I am from Keene, New Hampshire. I developed a deep love for nature by growing up spending my time in the woods and lakes of NH; hiking, day dreaming, and looking for wildlife. Travel, experiential learning, and service based learning have greatly influenced my education and interests. I am excited to be back in my beautiful home state to learn more about lake conservation while helping to teach the public about all things ecology. Let's hit the trails together!

Throughout the year, the Squam Lakes Association offers free programs open to the public on a variety of nature and conservation related topics.

The Adventure Ecology programs are presented by the Lakes Region Conservation Corps members who perform important conservation work in support of the Association's mission.

The Lakes Region Conservation Corps (LRCC) is an AmeriCorps service program that develops skills and experiences for conservation professionals. The program provides hands-on conservation work experience and numerous certifications over a broad range of areas
