Cold Spring Road

Cold Spring Road is a short, easy cross-country ski route in New Hampshire, about a mile from the village of Dixville Notch. The out-and-back trip covers roughly 0.6 miles, with a high point of 2,044 feet and a low of 2,016 feet. The climb is gentle, with a total gain of 83 feet, and the steepest stretch comes at about 0.24 miles in, with a grade of 9 percent. Winter is the natural season for this route. Typical averages from a nearby weather station in Errol show January highs around 23°F and lows near 1°F, while July highs reach about 77°F. That station sits roughly 800 feet lower than the road, so temperatures on the route run cooler. Reservoir Road and Golf Links Road are both about 0.2 miles away, and Abeniki is about 0.3 miles off. The Peregrine Trail, a hike, is about 0.8 miles away.
