Black Cap Trail

Hiking Trail

The Black Cap Trail is a short but steep hike in the White Mountains of New Hampshire. The Black Cap trail follows an out-and-back route. Because of the steep grades, especially near the summit, most hikers consider this a hard hike. On a clear day, you may be able to see all the way to Mount Washington from the stunning summit. Check out some of the photos from the community to get a sense of what you’ll see along the way.
