ACT’s Mid-Week Morning Walk in Sugar Hill

SUGAR HILL – Looking for a nice easy walk with a fabulous view?  Join the Ammonoosuc Conservation Trust (ACT) along with friends and neighbors for our next mid-week summer walk (and optional picnic)! We’re headed to one of our favorite places in Sugar Hill, the Bronson Hill Conservation Area, on Wednesday, July 31 from 10 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.

We’ll walk a brand-new loop on old woods roads that is about 2 miles in length with an elevation gain of about 250 feet.  Along the way, we will stop to see several old cellar holes and the historic Gibbs cabin.

Come to discover and enjoy the sweeping views of the western White Mountains from the open fields on Bronson Hill and bring a lunch for the optional picnic at the cabin.  Kids are encouraged to come on the walk but please leave your pups at home for this one.

Registration is required for this walk and is capped at 15 participants for your safety and enjoyment. Please be sure to register ASAP at act-nh.org/education-events.  Registration closes at noon on Tuesday, July 30.  The walk is free but donations are welcome and gladly accepted.

The Ammonoosuc Conservation Trust inspires and leads private, voluntary action to conserve the land the North Country loves.  Learn more and become a member at act-nh.org or by calling (603) 823-7777.
