Caribou Mountain Hike
2025-09-06 09:00 - 17:00 (America/New_York) | Caribou Mountain, 436 Bog Road, Unorganized Territory of South Oxford, ME, 04217, United States
Rescheduled! This was slated to be the initial hike of the season but was cancelled due to bad weather. It is now rescheduled for Saturday, September 6th. We will be heading up Caribou Mountain in the White Mountain National Forest. While the mountain is not directly on the Appalachian Trail it is on Forest Service land (like much of the A.T. landscape to the south) and there are great views of areas where the trail passes to the west and north. Plus it is one of our favorite trips!
We will be taking the Caribou Trail from the east trailhead, which is 2.8 miles down Bog Road off Route 2 in West Bethel. Many guidebooks only describe this trail from the Route 113 side in Evans Notch, so be careful! The hike is relatively moderate for most of its length and the distance to the summit is 3.1 miles (returning the same way). We will meet in the parking area past Pooh Corner Farm at the end of Bog Road.
