Stinson Mountain Trail Maps Top

The map below shows how to get to the summit of Stinson Mountain.

From the traillhead off Doetown Road in Rumney, NH (see driving directions towards the bottom of the page), hike up the Stinson Mountian Trail for 1.1 miles until you reach a junction with a snowmobile trail. You can continue up the snowmobile trail to reach the summit, or veer right onto the "hiking trail" as signed. Each way is 0.7 miles to the summit.

(There are seveal other snowmobile trails crossing the main hiking trail, so be sure to stay on the Stinson Mountain Trail. Or to make a loop hike, when you come to the trail junction [see photo below] with the "hiking trail" to the right and the "snow machine trail" to the left, you can take the left to the summit also.)
