Places to Hike

The western Maine mountains are so close… there are so many more great hikes but here are a few of our favorite ones nearby.
Mount Tire'm is a small 1,060-foot mountain adjacent to Keoka Lake in the town of Waterford, Maine. The Daniel Brown Trail offers access to the summit; its trailhead is on Plummer Hill Road just northwest of the village of Waterford. This short and rewarding hike climbs to the ledge top of Mount Tire'm (also spelled Tir'em) with excellent views to the southeast over Bear Pond, Keoka and Long Lakes, and Pleasant Mountain. You will find some cool “caves” made from giant rocks at the top.

The Hawk Mountain Trail in Waterford is for foot traffic only and proceeds 0.7 miles south from the trailhead to the town-owned Hawk Mountain lookout. Grades are gentle to moderate and the surface is mostly dirt with some loose rock. The length and relative gentleness of the ascent make this trail an excellent experience for the whole family. At the summit, broad cliffs with panoramic southerly views offer a spectacular picnicking or birdwatching spot.

One of our favorites located in Newry Maine, Table Rock Loop Trail is 2.4 miles round trip and labeled as moderate-advanced. Table Rock is 900 feet above the trailhead and offers fantastic views of Old Speck Mountain, the Eyebrow, and Grafton Notch. From the parking area cross ME Route 26 and follow the white-blazed Appalachian Trail northbound. After 0.1 miles, you can choose between the steep, boulder-strewn, orange-blazed Table Rock Trail (not appropriate for pets or young children) or continue on the moderately steep AT to the next trail junction. After approximately one mile, the blue-blazed Table Rock trail begins, offering an easier hike for less experienced hikers. Be careful at the summit, there is a steep drop-off where the ledge ends and no barrier's are in place.

For those looking for a leisurely hike, Grafton Notch State Parks offers three small areas that are frequented less often. These family-friendly areas allow visitors of all ages to see some of the interesting geological features of the Mahoosuc Region. Screw Auger Falls (0.4 miles network, easy): Located a mile north of the park entrance, Screw Auger Falls offers visitors an excellent opportunity to unwind from a long drive, picnic along the calming waters of the Bear River or take a quick dip to cool off. The paths around Screw Auger Falls lead to a 23-foot waterfall lying in a narrow gorge along the Bear River. A well-defined, 0.1-mile path with guard rails may be taken to view the falls. There are many ledges and large drop-offs, so please exercise caution, especially in wet weather conditions or when visiting with small children. Below the falls, the Bear River traverses through a series of cascades, past large potholes, shallow pools and grottoes. Mother Walker Falls (0.2 miles round trip, easy): Mother Walker Falls is located 1.1 mile north of Screw Auger Falls, is a v-shaped gorge more than 40 feet wide and 980 feet long. Also located on the Bear River, this cascade of water roars over broken rocks falling into small pools and gradually descending 98 feet. Moose Cave (0.4 miles loop, easy): Another 0.8 mile further, one can find Moose Cave located within a 45-foot-deep canyon of bedrock where water skirts boulders and temporarily disappears into a cave beneath a granite slab. The trail follows a 600-foot long gorge carved through granite by glacial meltwater. Hikers are urged to show caution on the slippery rocks so that one will not fall in the gorge like the unlucky moose for whom Moose Cove was named. The trail also loops through a moss garden located on the ledges of the mixed growth forest. Several species of lichen inhabit this garden including "Reindeer Moss" which is native to the Arctic Tundra. There is also an excellent view of Table Rock from Route 26 at this point.
