Galehead Hut is one of the more remote Appalachian Mountain Club huts in the White Mountains, perched at 3,800 feet between Mount Garfield and South Twin. Accessible via several trails—including the Garfield Ridge Trail and Twinway—it’s a popular overnight option for hikers tackling long routes like the Pemi Loop or Appalachian Trail section hikes. The hut offers meals, filtered water, composting toilets, and bunk accommodations during the full-service season (typically June through mid-September), and transitions to self-service in the shoulder seasons. From the hut, it’s a short, steep climb to the summit of Galehead Mountain, a wooded 4,000-footer, and a longer, tougher ascent to South Twin, which offers some of the best views in the area. While it’s a solid place to rest or refill on water mid-hike, Galehead is also a great base for exploring more remote corners of the Pemigewasset Wilderness without the crowds found on Franconia Ridge.

Lake of the Clouds Hut is the highest and one of the most iconic of the AMC’s backcountry huts. Perched at 5,012 feet between Mount Monroe and Mount Washington, it offers stunning alpine views, dramatic sunsets, and a front-row seat to the Presidential Range’s famously unpredictable weather. It's a great place to stop and refill water bottles or shelter from the weather on a day hike or an iconic (and popular!) place to spend the night. The hut is full-service during the summer and early fall, with bunk accommodations, family-style dinner and breakfast, potable water, and composting toilets. It sleeps over 90 hikers and is a popular overnight stop for those tackling the Presidential Traverse. Reservations are essential and fill quickly.

​The Max Israel Shelter is a three-sided Adirondack-style shelter located along the Monadnock-Sunapee Greenway (MSG) in southwestern New Hampshire. Situated approximately 37 miles north of Mount Monadnock's summit and about 13 miles south of Mount Sunapee, it serves as a convenient overnight spot for hikers on the 48-mile trail. Nestled within a stand of red spruce trees, the shelter accommodates 4-5 people, with additional space nearby for tent camping. Water can be sourced from a small brook located approximately 0.2 miles before reaching the shelter when approaching from the south. ​

Nestled in the White Mountain National Forest, the Mizpah Spring Hut is a cozy stop for hikers exploring the Presidential Range. Offering bunk accommodations, hearty meals, and potable water, it’s a great place to rest and recharge while enjoying breathtaking views of the surrounding mountains. Whether you're tackling a challenging trail or looking for a serene overnight retreat, this Appalachian Mountain Club hut is a memorable part of any White Mountains adventure.

Nice stop at mountain lakes

The Highland Center at Crawford Notch is an AMC-managed information center, lodge, and archive complex. Built on the site of the historic Crawford House hotel, the Highland Center is just a few hundred yards from the historic Crawford Depot, which houses the Macomber Family Information Center. Open during the summer and fall seasons, there are interpretive displays, an information desk, and a small gift shop where you can also purchase last minute hiking items like whistles and compasses. The Highland Center houses the official AMC Library and Archives and offers full-service lodging for those who wish to stay in the heart of the White Mountains. There is a full meal service, shuttles to nearby trailheads, and activities, like guided day hikes, instructional talks on topics like outdoor skills, and evening programs like films and guest lectures.

Hermit Lake is an alpine lake at the base of the iconic Tuckerman's Ravine bowl. There are shelters around the lake, bathroom facilites (flush toilets in the summer, vault in the fall, winter, and spring) and a caretaker's hut. The Hermit Lake shelters are the only legal campsite on the eastern slopes of Mt. Washington and require reservations. The caretakers's hut is a great resource for hikers, mountaineers and skiers; it is staffed year-round and you can get up to date weather forecasts, avalanche reports (in the winter and spring), and there is also hiker register available for you to sign. You can also buy emergency supplies and 10 Essentials here.

From this view you can clearly see the lakes and this hut. Lake of the Clouds is one of the most visited destinations in the area. Above the treeline, it often seems that the clouds are sitting on top of the water.
