Monadnock Region Foliage Report
The fall foliage is over 50% changed in the Monadnock region, and some areas are nearly 75% changed. Our leaf peepers are reporting outstanding colors along many roads. Take this ride for views of hearty oranges, fiery reds, tawny yellows, flashy pinks, and all shades of green: start in Hillsborough on Route 9 west – this road runs alongside a number of marshy areas that are stunning right now with their red maples in full bloom. Watch for wild turkeys along this road – they are usually clustered in groups of 5 or more. Follow Route 9 to Keene, to Route 12 toward Troy; continue on Route 12 to Fitzwilliam, and take Route 119 east to West Rindge. Take a left onto Route 202 east to Jaffrey, and turn left on to Route 124. Follow this road to Marlborough, and take Route 101 east through Dublin to Peterborough. From here you can take Route 202 back to Hillsborough. Take your time exploring this area; don’t be afraid to venture off on some of the lesser-known side roads. You can see Mount Monadnock from almost anywhere in this region, and word is that the mountain is about 60% changed now, with the base a patchwork quilt of yellow, orange and green. Route 31 brings you to Greenfield, where you can see an authentic trebuchet hurl pumpkins nearly a half a mile in distance! For information, please visit Yankee Siege Trebuchet in Greenfield, New Hampshire.

Getting There:

Greenfield State Park
Forest Road P.O. Box 203
Greenfield NH 03047

From I-93 (Southbound): Take I-89 north to Exit 5 onto Route 202/9 follow Route 202 to Route 136 then follow signs to Greenfield State Park
From I-93 (Northbound): Take Route 101 west to Route 31 towards Greenfield. Follow signs to Greenfield State Park.
From I-95: Take Route 101 west to Route 31 towards Greenfield. Follow signs to Greenfield State Park.
From I-91: Take Exit 3 in Brattleboro VT onto Route 9 east. Follow to Route 101 east to Route 202 to Route 136, follow signs to Greenfield State Park.

As folks approach Greenfield State Park on Route 31 you'll come upon a railroad crossing which is at the top of a little hill. Take it easy going over the tracks as they are pretty darn uneven and will cause things to swift around inside your camper if you are traveling at the posted speed limit.
