Whiteface Trailhead

Highlight • Trail

The trailhead looks unassuming — you can part at the turn-around area and walk up the dirt road by the houses. After the first house the trail will be on your left.

Whiteface Trail (lower segment)

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

The trail is well-marked, and you can find blueberry bushes lining the path in late summer. The trail is gradual which makes for a pleasant descent.

The summit is a throne of open stone slabs that grant views across the Gunstock range, west to Winnisquam, and northeast toward Winnipesaukee. This hike is especially beautiful in the fall.
