Milan, NH Trailheads, measurements, times, distances, and maps are all approximate and relative to the hike(s) as shown below. ![]() Heading up to the Milan Hill summit Since its located in a state park, I figured Milan Hill would be crowded on a sunny Memorial Day weekend. Not the case - the gate was locked and there was not a soul to be seen. There were no maps posted, so I proceeded through the gate and up the paved road. Just past a cabin there was a fork in the road - with no obvious signs. Just for the heck of it, I decided to go to the left and was soon at the firetower. Despite the haze, the views from the firetower were still rather strong - Old Speck to the east, Mt. Washington to the south, and Long Mountain to the northwest. My knee was sore from the getgo - on recent hikes (though none done on consecutive days since the full onset of the injury), I was able to do the ascent pain free. As a result, I'm likely going to shut it down altogether for a few weeks and see if extended rest helps heal things up.
