Create Your Own Challenge
To appeal to all abilities and experiences, we invite you to Create Your Own Challenge. We encourage you to hike within your comfort level whether that’s picking a scenic hike from the 52 With A View List, hiking out in the Berkshires in MA, or challenging yourself to many of the unique challenges in the White Mountains (ex: Pemi Loop, Presidential Traverse, Appalachian Trail through NH, Moats Traverse, etc.). Check out these links below to learn about several options we suggest and where to learn more! Then, when you’ve decided, fill out the Peak Selection form below to share your plans with us!
Check out these helpful links to brainstorm some Create Your Own Challenge ideas:
- MA & NH Trails we suggest plus longer traverses!
- Vermont hiking ideas - waterfalls, bird watching, backpacking, and more!
- 52 With A View List
