This trail is on a wooded hillside between Goosehole Pond and Otter Pond. Trail highlights include a notable view of Mount Sunapee and Lake Sunapee and access to Otter Pond. The trail at the Phillips Memorial Preserve leaves from the parking area and follows along the edge of the preserve property, climbs by an old quarry, then reaches the top of the hill. Beautiful views of Lake Sunapee are seen from the trail as you head down toward Otter Pond. At the trail intersection toward the bottom of the hill, a right turn brings you to the edge of the pond and left turn goes back to the parking area. The outer loop trail is just under a mile in length. A forestry project was completed here in 2013 and a forestry cover map was prepared.
