Rollins State Park
About
Rollins State Park is a 121-acre state park in New Hampshire, about 4.4 miles from the town of Warner. Late spring through early fall is the most comfortable stretch to visit. Typical averages from a nearby weather station in Salisbury put July highs around 80°F, while September cools to highs near 71°F with lows in the mid-40s. The station sits at 550 feet, so if you head higher in the area, expect temperatures to run cooler. The Rollins Trail is 2.6 miles away, and the Connection to Lincoln Trail is 2.9 miles away. Kearsarge Mountain Road, a ski touring route, is 2.3 miles from the park. For bouldering, Lincoln's Black Top Hat Boulder is 3.1 miles away, and paddlers will find the Blackwater River about 4.1 miles off.
