Old North Groton Rd, Bald Knob Trail, Beeline Tr., High Pasture Loop, John F. Woodhouse Tr., Ledges/Little Pond Loop, Romley Remick Rd.

Trail Conditions

Dry Trail

Notes

The Cockermouth Forest is one of the many options on the August-October SPNHF hiking challenge. I did a counterclockwise loop of the trails. About 6.4 miles total, with 1300-1400 feet of elevation gain for the peaks, the only steep area. The Ledges involved a smaller bit of steep up and down too. The views from Bald Knob and Crosby are excellent.

Parking

I parked off of North Groton Road, where there's room for several vehicles. No others when I arrived, and one other when left.
