Red Hill
Moultonborough, NH
Trailheads, measurements, times, distances, and maps are all approximate and relative to the hike(s) as shown below.
The new lower Red Hill Trail
Route: Red Hill Trail
Trail was snow free and dry.
The original snowmobile/rocky road start has been closed to hikers. On the north side of the parking lot, there is now a new footpath that sort of parallels that road, then crosses it where the hiking trail takes a right. Gentle grades, but footbed isn't well established yet.
I ran a track on my phone on the way down and measured it at 1.6 miles, parking lot to tower.
