Description

These two fantastic birding trails both lead to a wetland. 

The trails were created in memory of Harold Sonnichsen by his children.

John Morton of Morton Trails designed the trails. The builders were Ed Paige and Richie Harris of Paige Excavating; John and Harrison Renfrew and Steve Lackie of Renfrew Buildling; Chuck Hillner or Check's Custom Wood Signs; and Shane and Dusty Harris of Vermont Wholesale Granite. Harry Davidson and the Woodsville High School National Honor Society maintain the trails.

Trail Tips

Respect Wildlife
Keep wildlife wild: do not feed, follow, approach, or otherwise harass wild animals. Doing so may alter their natural behaviors.

Trailhead Information

From the Haverhill Commons, drive north on NH-10 for 0.5 miles. Turn left onto Meadow Road and proceed 0.8 miles to the parking area. The first trail is at the beginning of the circular parking area. The second can be found by walking back down Meadow Road approximately 400 feet.
