Distance: 1.6 Miles Roundtrip, option for longer
Difficulty: Easy
Located in Fitzwilliam, New Hampshire is this easy hiking trail to Sip Pond. The trailhead is located off a Old Turnpike Road. From Route 12 turn onto this dirt road and drive about .6 miles until you see a conservation sign on your right. Park along the edge and walk towards the kiosk at the back of the parking lot.
You walk down a short path that connects to the Monadnock Recreation Trail which is a multipurpose trail. Turn right and follow the recreation trail.
Continue down the trail a half mile until you see a trail sign on your right for Sip Pond.
Follow this well maintained path another third of a mile until you get to the end where you have beautiful views of Sip Pond and Mt Monadnock.
From here you can walk back to the Monadnock Recreational Trail and continue down the trail, which I believe the trail goes all the way to Keene. Or you can head back to the parking lot. If you head back to your car the total length of the trip is 1.6 miles. With this trails being around a swamp, my thoughts are it is going to be beautiful when the fall colors start changing.
