Red Hill via Eagle Cliff Trail (Squam Lake, NH)

Some stunning views of Squam Lake are available from several locations along the Eagle Cliff Trail (see photo), as well as 360 degree views on the top of Red Hill from the fire tower. Both the Eagle Cliff Trail and the Red Hill Trail meander through deciduous woods, with only a few ascending sections, giving the hiker grand views for a moderate effort. Car spotting is necessary.

4.3 miles; 1,200 ft. elevation gain
Summit: Red Hill = 2,033 foot
Route: Eagle Cliff Trail to Red Hill, then Red Hill Trail
