Often snow-cloaked, the spiny summit of Mount Washington makes it the tallest peak in the northeast and the king of the White Mountain Region, an area laced with hiking trails and dotted with quaint little hamlets.
The trailhead is on the west side of Route
113, just north of Evans Notch. The trail
crosses Evans Brook, climbs steeply and
crosses other small brooks in the first 0.5-
mile. The trail reaches the junction of the
Royce Connector Trail at 1.0 mile. Stay
right on the East Royce Trail, coming to
open ledges at 1.1 miles. At 1.4 miles
there are southern views, then the trail
turns right and climbs to the summit of
East Royce Mountain. Continue 0.1 miles
to a path turning right (north) to a large
ledge with views to the north and west.
We offer a compact version of Go-Newhampshire for mobile users, allowing you to access just the information you need on the road. Of course, you can still use the full version of Go-Newhampshire on your mobile device just as you can on your desktop.
