Guided Hike: Doublehead Mountain
November 4 @ 9:00 am–12:00 pm
Today's Guided Hike:
Join LRCC members Diego and Kevin for a steep but rewarding hike in a less known portion of the Squam Range. The Eastman Brook to Doublehead Trail is a 5.3 mile out and back that will challenge your legs as you ascend to the peak. From the ridge, get clear views of the Squam Range, Red Hill, and the Lakes Region. To check out the trail on AllTrails, click here.
This hike is moderate, but we welcome all up to the challenge. All children must be accompanied by an adult.
