for hiking. A mountain road leads to trails on the western slope of Mount Cardigan as well as
a trail to the summit. Here, Mount Cardigan's 3,121-foot treeless granite summit affords
outstanding views of west central N.H., with a spectacular view that includes Mt. Monadnock and the
White Mountains, Camel's Hump in Vermont, and Pleasant Mountain in Maine.

includes picnic tables at a great spot for picnicking.
