Tunnel is a cross-country ski route in the Pemigewasset Ranger District of White Mountain National Forest in New Hampshire, managed by the Forest Service. It is a short out-and-back, about 1.1 miles long, with a total climb of 268 feet and a steepest grade of about 9% at the halfway point. Winter is the natural season for this route. Typical averages from the nearby Pinkham Notch weather station show January highs around 26°F and lows near 6°F, while July highs reach about 75°F. The station sits at a similar elevation to the route, so those figures are a fair guide to conditions here. Porcupine Lane and Tim Nash, both cross-country ski routes, lie within about half a mile. Omni Mount Washington Resort, Bretton Woods, offers lake fishing about 2.5 miles away, and Nauman Tentsite is a campground roughly 3.3 miles off.
