You need to be careful to watch the trail markers, and the Wapack Trail has some very rocky parts, but it's a great hike. Love that there's a gift shop at the top & latrines at both the top & bottom. There's also the escape route that you could walk down the auto road if you needed to. My Garmin said I burned 800 calories. Awesome! Beautiful hike & healthily too.

Five stars for this great state park! We had only a few hours for a hike, and taking the Wapack…read moretrail up to the peak and the road back down to the parking lot was perfect. The Wapack trail (1.4 miles) involves lots of scrambling on rocks and over roots. We hiked on a misty, drizzly October morning. The visibility was not great: all we could see was mist. But coming from the mountain desert, we loved seeing the ferns and the foliage and the huge trees and all the granite. We didn't come prepared with real hiking boots, but our sneakers were grippy enough to handle climbing up the rocks, even in light rain. We enjoyed climbing to the almost-top of the fire tower and admiring the view from above. The informational signs about the raptor migration near the top were neat. Our $12 admission for three people in one car was just right.

Very short hike to witness beautiful waterfalls. If you are in the area, it's worth a stop.read more

You'll feel how in-shape you are or aren't for hiking :-) We hiked the rustically beautiful well-maintained Marion Davis trail up from NH-101 Wilton Rd to the 2290 ft peak in about 90 minutes, then returned the easier way down Miller State Park Road in about half that time. There were rocky outcroppings and not-yet-greening (Apr 2026) grey-brown hardwood forests. Nearer the summit, there were spruce. At the top, we talked with friendly helpful rangers, (used the restrooms), and climbed the Fire Tower. We could see the taller Grand Monadnock Mountain to the west, and we could see wide open vistas, from the summit, and from halfway down Miller Rd. where the power lines cross the road. The cost was $4 per adult, $2 for kids, and free for seniors. If there's no ranger at the Miller State Park entrance, you can pay "the Iron Ranger" (the metal drop-box :-). I think there's a small souvenir shop at the summit, but we didn't check it out. And you can drive up and park at the summit when you're not up for the hike. By the way, we guessed that "Pack" meant "small". Apparently "Monadnock" is the name the Abenacki gave it as a "stand-alone" remnant of an ancient mountain range.

Forgot the bug spray which would have kept the critters at bay with much of the trail having slow or puddled water. Parking wasn't too crowded, $15 for access to park. Snack and gift shop in the lot and the headquarters building just up the trail. Great restroom facility to use prior to starting the hike as well. Very rocky terrain all the way up, clearly marked with white dots (crosses as well for the return). Enjoyed the fact there were multiple volunteer guides hiking or positioned at locations (one steady at fork for dot/cross) if needed. Had low reception all through the hike for emergencies as well. Beautiful views towards the top and of course 360 once on the summit. Definitely worth the time spent. Pack in pack out, bring water and snacks along with the spray (both bug and sun)! Enjoyed a quick snack on the top with the views and a quick tsp of the marker before heading back down. Time to get up to the peak, what are you waiting for?!

Whether it is ice and snow with trax on or wet leaves on a steep incline, you can bet on a challenge. The most commonly used trail up the mountain is the 2 mile (one way), White Dot trail. It is well marked and easily followed. The elevation gain is rapid, as this is a shorter hike. The views are absolutely stellar from the summit. There is a small shop at the base and you receive a map upon entry with basic guidelines and trails. If you are into the outdoors, I highly recommend this spot! Laces up!

The rock walk in Fitchburg really opened my eyes more of the history of Fitchburg. Peter Capadaglia…read more brought out the history of Fitchburg with the main concern on the Rollstone bolder and Rollstone hill. The work they are doing for the city of Fitchburg to make this history more excess able and to make it a self guided tour by using QR codes on the granite post through Fitchburg all the way to the top of Rollstone hill. This is being done by all grants which we need to continue this work. Rollstone hill is a Hidden gem that needs to be made known to anyone that visits our great city of Fitchburg. Peter does two guided tours a year one in the summer one in the fall. This summer tour they were able to have the assistance of FATV Fitchburg Access Television. They filmed the tour and are going to make it available to people who would never be able to make up top to Rollstone hill and to others who never heard of Rollstone hill in Fitchburg.

The guide tells you a lot about the local history and his pace is really good.

I know they're working on creating a self-guided option. If you get a chance to do the rock walk, do it!

But something MAGICAL happens when you see sculptures displayed in the woods. You'll see these sculptures with a whole new appreciation. There's art here from sculptors from all over the world. And there's a nice variety as well. A nice map is available in the parking area to help you navigate. There's signage for each piece and some have explanations as well to enrich your understanding. Some of the trail signage is less than clear but you're always close to a numbered sculpture so you can find exactly where you are on your map. A few tips: - Wear sneakers or hiking shoes as some of the trails are a bit rough. - Be prepared to walk and climb. There are 140 acres, multiple trails and much of it involves climbing up (or down) - Bring the kids! Most kids will love the walk through the woods and will enjoy discovering each new sculpture. - Maps are available in the parking area, but print your own (in color) ahead of time if possible. - Most of the sculptures are up from the parking area. I recommend walking up the paved Parking Trail to get started. Yes it's a bit longer but easier and there's some great sculptures on it. When you get to #26- Community and Diversity, you are at a junction and you can pick up trails through the woods for most of the place. - Allow at least 2-3 hours or you will feel like you missed out. By the way the variety of mushrooms was fantastic in August. Just another treat in a wonderful place. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
