Pillsbury State Park is one of the more primitive and lesser-known parks of the New Hampshire State Park system. Heavily wooded and sprinkled with several ponds and wetlands, its diversity of habitats makes it home to a great variety of wildlife, including moose and loons. Crossed by a network of hiking and mountain bike trails, the park is an important link in the Monadnock-Sunapee Greenway, a 51-mile hiking trail that connects Mount Monadnock with Mount Sunapee to the north. History buffs enjoy exploring the park’s long-abandoned and overgrown cellar holes, remnants of early farm settlement, and lumbering of the late 1700s and early 1800s when the area was called Cherry Valley.
