Main Kiosk Parking Area

(Please do not park in front of any of the gates.)

From the kiosk parking area, take the yellow-blazed King Brook Reservoir Trail to the orange blazed Fisk Hill-Spring Trail. Follow the orange-blazed trail as it ascends Fisk Hill, reaching its highest point approximately 0.9 miles from the shoreline of King Brook Reservoir. If you continue past the height of land for about 0.3 miles more, you will reach an abandoned orchard from which you can glimpse views of the Lyndeborough and Uncanoonuc Mountains. From here, return to the kiosk parking area the way you came in. (If the kiosk parking area is full, there is additional parking on the left-hand (western) side of Heald Road, approximately .4 miles past the kiosk parking. Park in front of the log barrier.)

Accessibility Description

This trail has uneven surfaces, possible hazards (i.e. downed trees or branches) and may be muddy at certain times of the year. Parking areas and pull offs are not typically plowed in winter months, and trails may be inaccessible due to lack of safe, off-road parking at this time of year.

The Forest Society welcomes all people to our forest reservations, regardless of race, ethnicity, religion, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, disability or age.
