For me, there’s nothing quite like getting into nature to clear away life’s stresses or to simply get an energy recharge. It’s well known that taking a hike or nature walk is not only physically beneficial but also does wonders for the mind. Water features like cascades, brooks, and ponds are some of my favorite places to visit, and one of the quietest hikes in New Hampshire can be found at Wachipauka Pond in Warren.

Wachipauka Pond in Warren is a remote, 22-acre backcountry pond nestled between Mt. Mist and Webster Slide Mountain.

Wachipauka Pond can be approached from either Rt. 25 to the northeast (which has better parking) or from Rt. 25C (which is a shorter distance) to the southwest.

Wachipauka Pond Trail is a segment of the long-distance Appalachian Trail, but fortunately, you don't have to hike 2,200 miles to reach the pond!
