Perfect. Parking was great. Trail was short but challenging. And the view was awesome. Lots of great informational signs about nature!
First time coming here, it was a really nice hike, the view from the top was beautiful, bring some type of bug spray hiking up.
Great spot for hiking.
Beautiful site, clean with different trails levels

We took a shorter but steeper pine hill trail going up and old Indian trail coming down. Total 2.3 miles and under 2 hours and loved the hike. There is some gold fish for kids on top 🐠🐟
Great hiking spot.
They have restrooms at the base of the mountain, resting spot along the way and an amazing 360 view at the top

The trails were clear, not too hard, it gets icy in the winter so all the rock steps become slides. The summit had a watchtower, couple of benches and a great view. For the general public, 4/5. But in my own opinion it’s a 3/5. The visuals and the hike itself leaves you desiring more, as someone who hiked Washignton and Monadnock, this was underwhelming. But not a waste of time. Still had a good time hiking the small trail from the visitor center in the winter.
Nice hike on a beautiful early fall Sunday. Quite a few hikers out there. Parking at the visitor center is limited. However, there is plenty of parking in the other parking lots down Mountain Rd.
The Old Indian Trail to the summit was pretty muddy, but manageable. The view from the summit is well worth the hike up there (it is also possible to drive up there, but hey, what's the fun in that?)

Great place to go with the family the view is breathtaking. It was a cold windy day but it was all worth it. The price was not high and the food was delicious. They had bathrooms and in clean condition. I definitely will come again!!!
