Middle Mountain
About
Middle Mountain is a summit in New Hampshire, about 1.5 miles from North Conway. The Middle Mountain Trail begins just 0.1 mile away and is the natural way to approach the peak. Summer and early fall are the most comfortable times to go. A nearby weather station in North Conway, about 1,300 feet lower than the summit, records typical average highs around 81°F in July and 72°F in September, and temperatures on top run cooler than that. Snow is a regular part of the season from roughly November through April. Peaked Mtn Trail starts about a mile away, which makes it easy to pair with this hike. Within about four miles you'll find the Saco River for fishing and the WM: North Conway climbing area. Covered Bridge campground sits about 7.6 miles away.
