Settlement Trail

Settlement Trail is a short, easy hike in New Hampshire, about 2.2 miles from the town of Clark Landing. The route is 0.96 miles long, with a one-way climb of 132 feet from a starting elevation of about 1,358 feet to a high point of 1,434 feet. The trail is a point-to-point route, and the steepest stretch comes at about 0.21 miles in, with a grade of about 9 percent. Summer is the most comfortable time to go. Typical averages from a nearby weather station in E Sandwich show July highs around 82°F with lows near 57°F, and September still runs in the low 70s. That station sits well below the trail, so temperatures on the route run cooler. Crag In The Clouds, a climbing area, and Pond Trail are both about 0.3 miles away. Mount Roberts Trail is about half a mile off, and Brook Walk is about 0.4 miles away.
