About this Location

The Souhegan River Trail meanders through property owned by the State of New Hampshire. This property is managed by the Fish & Game Department as a fish hatchery. Some of the property, the fields in particular, is leased to local farmers or dairymen and should be treated as private land.

The trail follows the river closely and may be flooded during seasonally high water. There are two bridges spanning small watercourses before they enter the Souhegan River.

Follow the white blazes. There are many trails in this area made over the years by children, fishermen, and local people walking by the river. Some trails lead to private land, please stay on the designated trail.

You may notice red paint spots and orange ribbons. These have been placed by snowmobilers and are not part of the trail system.

From the Milford Oval take NH-13 north, then North River Road for approximately 2.7 miles. Turn left onto a small gravel road 0.3 miles past the Milford Fish Hatchery. Park on the right side at the end of the road.
