Been there hundreds of times. The chapel right up the road is a pretty famous one too. Love the sandwich wilderness.

Yeah the Ferncroft area is just quintessential rural New England goodness. Absolutely beautiful.

For the sake of argument, I’d call this area decidedly central NH.

Sometimes there’s things

a man cannot know

The gears won’t turn

and the leaves won’t grow

There’s no place to run and no gasoline

Engine won’t turn and the train won’t leave

Well the way I feel is the way I write

It isn’t like the thoughts of a man who lies

There is a truth and it’s on our side

Dawn is coming

Open your eyes

That drive into the lot is definitely one of the best views in the area. Also - don't sleep on the Hibbard - Mount Woncalecet loop. Everyone does Whiteface/Passaconway but if you want to avoid crowds the eastern side is great.

Absolutely! Not sure if everyone has hiked to Paugus but if you do, Kelley Trail. Its less traveled and theres a box canyon.

I've only done Paugus via Big Rock and Cabin. Its been awhile since I've been over there, maybe I'll check out the Kelley Trail. I'm semi casually redlining so I need to check it out anyway.

These are my favorite areas in the Whites, these beauty cubbies. The old little white house with the dirt road and a hiking trail hub basically. The whole scene screams New Hampshire.

Is there handicap access to this hike?

Sure, this isnt actually a hike, its at the end of a road that leads to popular hikes. You can check out this area simply by driving up the road.
