The Setting
Located in the White Mountains Region, just north of the Presidential Range, Moose Brook State Park is in an area of unparalleled scenery and offers a variety of outdoor activities. The park is ideally located for fishing in the Peabody and Moose rivers. Moose Brook flows through the park, and after passing through a shallow warming pool, feeds the swimming area with cool, clear mountain water. Picnicking and swimming are enjoyed against the scenic mountain backdrop. The many trails in the park are great for exploring on foot or mountain bike.
The day-use area of the park is open full-time from mid June through Labor Day. Hours of operation are from 10:00am - 5:00pm, weather permitting.
- Ideal for a base camp for hiking the Presidential Range, including Mount Washington.
- Peabody and Moose Rivers flow through the park.
- Scenic mountain backdrop
- The 87 park acres and surrounding 668 acres of state forest were purchased by the state in 1934.
- The swimming area, bathhouse, campground, and administration building were built at that time and the park opened to the public in 1936.
- The original administration building, still in use, is an excellent example of classic Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) design and construction.
