Flat:
- Great Bay Natl. Wildlife Refuge, on western edge of Pease property -- two short loops available. Longer of the two is probably 1.5 or 2 miles, takes you out to a point overlooking Great Bay and looking across at Jackson Labs on Durham Point.
- Odiorne Point State Park -- there are more walking trails here than meet the eye. Explore old WWII gun placements and bunkers. Portsmouth Harbor was heavily guarded for the shipyard and Pease . . . big fear was German subs.
- Fort Foster - Kittery Point ME way out at mouth of Piscataqua -- a lot like Odiorne, but with terrific huge beach on the river mouth, and another on the open ocean.
- Plum Island - Newburyport MA --
- Durham - college woods
- Blue Job mtn. - Rochester/Strafford NH - has a fire tower, nice views all around. Climb in 10 to 25 mins. A bit tricky to find trailhead; be sure you have a good map/directions with you.
- Mt. Agamenticus - York ME -- ditto. Climb in 20-40 minutes. Fire tower closed but there's a decent observation deck. Car road to top, too, but we wouldn't do that, would we?
- Pawtuckaway State Park - Raymond / Nottingham NH
