White Mountain National Forest Announces Trail Reconstruction Project

Release Date: Jul 25, 2016

Campton, NH – Part of the popular Champney Falls Trail on the Kancamagus Scenic Byway is temporarily closed for trail reconstruction work (map).  The section of the trail that provides access to the scenic Champney and Pitcher Falls, as well as trails leading to the scenic Champney and Pitcher Falls is closed to access by hikers; however, the trail leading to the summit of Mt. Chocorua is open.    

Due to extensive use and erosion, some areas along the trail have become unstable. Reconstruction work is being performed to make the trail more sustainable. 

Please contact the Saco Ranger Station at: 603-447-5448 for more information and for updates about this temporary closure.
