Description

Added by Adrianna Barton

Highly recommend this hike! It's short and sweet. The view is great and it is not a very crowded hike. I recommend going here if you go to the nearby Parc de la Gorge as well, it is about 25 minutes away.

We came from Parc de la Gorge on Ch de Baldwin-Barnston road, which leads you to the Parc Harold F Baldwin area. Turn left onto Ch May and park your car in the parking area that is next to a small shop/cafe. There are signs at this point. Walk up the hill a bit until you reach the blue Mt. Pinacle sign and the trail on the right of the road. The hike up took us about 20 minutes to the awesome view. To get back down just retrace your steps. There is an intersection at one point about 3/4 of the way up, we just kept right but the other option will also take you to the top.

Hike the Parc de la Gorge de Coaticook Yellow Trail

Hiking trails at Parc de la Gorge de Coaticook are spread into 3 sectors to reveal the park’s attractions.For a day trip I will suggest doing the yellow trail, which is the one we did. It will bring you directly into the heart of the Gorge. It is quite a short hike, 1h30-2h00 and you'll get the chance to walk on the longest pedestrian suspension bridge in North America. Be careful if you are af...

Hike to the Top of Table Rock

Though the trail may seem a bit daunting at first (especially for beginners), this out-and-back hike isn't all that difficult. At the trailhead (located almost directly behind the sign "Entering Dixville Notch State Park"), you'll begin by walking through some densely wooded forest. The trail is pretty steep and requires a bit of finesse as there are a lot of fallen branches and limbs across th...
