This is now my favourite trail up Passaconaway. It's about 0.5 mile longer (but it's a flat 0.5 mile) than the Dicey Mill Expressway but probably sees 1/20th of the traffic. A sunny summer Sunday on a 4K and I saw exactly two other hikers the entire day. Be warned though - most of the climbing is in the last third. |
