In addition to perennial Waterville Valley favorites, hikers will sample some other great options in surrounding towns. Goodrich Rock Enjoy the consistent surface of the moderately graded Greeley Ponds Trail before ascending more earnestly as the trail meanders through the Davis Boulders on its way to the impressive Goodrich Rock.

Trails may be rough, steep, and involve un-bridged stream crossings.
