Review & FAQ:
If you enjoy hiking, wide open spaces, and rare plants then visiting West Rattlesnake Mountain near Holderness, New Hampshire is a must-do activity to add to your itinerary. You can reach the summit of the mountain along Old Bridle Path and Ridge Trail in about ninety minutes (or less, depending on your fitness levels and how much time you spend admiring the scenery), and the hike is considered to be easy/moderate.
At the summit you will be rewarded for you efforts by sweeping views of Squam Lake and its many islands. The trail is suitable for dogs (on leads), and you could bring a picnic to enjoy under a shady tree.
