Colby-Phillips Trails

Moderate Parking available Scenic views

Hanover's Colby-Phillips Trails extend for 3 miles through a diverse and inviting 147-acre property, with boardwalks through woods and wetlands, a bridge over Cushing Brook, and an observation deck along the way. It is one of the more varied trail systems in town, worth a visit if you want a mix of terrain in a single walk.
