Fall weather is here again. And the temperature was perfect for a Sunday morning stroll up to the Stratham Fire Tower in Stratham Hill Park. Before this, I had never been to this fire tower.
When Liberty and I arrived at the parking lot, we were both surprised to see the lot almost completely full. We soon realized that there was a car show going on and lots of classic cars on display.
We started up the main trail that goes straight to the Tower. When we got there a few mountain bikers, and a few hikers/walkers were already there.
I didn’t want to leave Liberty by herself at the bottom, so I did not climb up the tower. I’ll have to comeback another time to see those views.
From there we decided to walk a some of other trails located in the park. The trails zig-zag round the park property and beyond.
Eventually we ended back at the fire tower and made our way down from there. The park seems to have a good mixed use between all the hikers and mountain bikers.
The trails are all in very good condition and well maintained. This a very beautiful park, I’ll have to come back and ride my bike around.
