About This Trail
This hike will take you to some amazing peaks. The quote is Haystack. The Ore Bed Brook Trail will lead you to the Range Trail which is one of the more challenging trails in the high peaks with a lot of scrambling. The first part of the loop involves going over the hump of Little Haystack to get to the summit of Haystack, then going back through the trail past the lodge. It is a long hill so you want to get an early morning start to enjoy the views.
