White Mountain National Forest · New Hampshire, Maine
Trailhead Chippewa Trailhead 1,314 ft Drive there
No Fee Required
The very scenic Chippewa trail ascends the rocky summit of Black Mountain in 1.8 miles. The trailhead, which accommodates three or four cars, and beginning section of trail are on private land. The historic Lime Kilns diverge left from the trail on an old road and are well worth a visit.

The lines are the US Forest Service's National Forest System trails layer (public domain), read 2026-10-16 and simplified for the map; the length is the line's, end to end, and the class, surface, grade and tread width are the forest's own entries where it publishes them - a forest that publishes the centreline alone has none. The trailheads and the points along the way are the Service's recreation points, and the write-ups its own recarea text, unedited. Heights come from USGS 3DEP through Terrain Tiles on AWS (Mapzen/Tilezen), read along each line and rounded; a short trail on steep ground can be off by a few tens of feet. Closures change: check the forest's own site before you go.
