Pinnacle Park located in Hooksett, New Hampshire and is a great urban hiking option. Pinnacle Park is located on Pinnacle Street off of Rt 3A. The parking lot is marked with a sign on the right hand side of the road.
In the parking lot is a kiosk with a map of the trails in Pinnacle Park.
We followed the trail through the woods. There are no trail markers, but it is pretty easy to follow.
There is a trail off to the right that goes to a bench overlook. We did not check out that part of the trail.
The trail was a gentle inclined up to a lookout point, which provides views of Hooksett and the Merrimack River.
For little effort, a half mile to the top and being minutes outside of Manchester, Pinnacle Park is a great option for some pretty views.
