• To gate: 4.6 mi

Difficulty: Intermediate

Follow same directions from I-93 as apply to Smarts Brook - Tri Town Route and park at the Smart's Brook Trailhead; or turn right at Sandwich Notch Road and drive approximately 0.9 mile to a gated Forest Service Road on the right. This is Chickenboro Road (FSR 206). This route climbs gradually to a large open field. Prior to the crossing of Chickenboro Brook, look for a narrow path that leaves right and follows downstream to a portage. This crossing is only difficult in high water. Beyond, the route follows an old woods path, rough and rocky at times but rideable. Within sight of a seasonal house, the route recrosses the stream on a snowmobile bridge. Follow the improved dirt road back to Goose Hollow, bearing right to route 49. Follow the main highway (right) back to the starting point.
