Visit to Madame Sherri Castle and Hike to Daniel’s Mountain, W. Chesterfield NH

Hello, everyone! I am planning a visit to Madame Sherri Castle and hike to nearby Daniel's Mountain in West Chesterfield, NH. The Madame Sherri Castle ruins are a well-known landmark gem in Southern NH, and the castle burned down in 1963. We will be traveling via the Ann Stokes trail and the Daniel's Mountain Loop trail. The hike will be a 4.2-mile hike with an elevation gain of approximately 700 feet. The featured photo is one that I took on a previous visit. There are some beautiful views! Dogs are welcomed at this location but must be leashed at all times.

Please bring the following gear for the event:
Water (at least 3 bottles)
Hiking Shoes
Insect Repellent
Snacks (as needed)

Parking for Madame Sherri Forest is located in a small, dirt parking lot at the Madame Sherri Forest trailhead on Gulf Road in West Chesterfield, NH. Overflow parking is permitted across the street but not directly on the street. Please refer to the map pin for driving directions. Depending on how many RSVPs I receive for this event, I will add a carpool location to accommodate a larger group. Please keep an eye on the comments section and I will post a comment to attendees in advance (3 days at the latest) with a carpool location and additional instructions.

Plan to arrive at the parking lot for 9:00am. When I arrive, I will post a comment in the comments section to confirm my location. We will wait 15 minutes for friends to gather before starting the hike. I have allocated 3 hours for this event, but we will travel at our own pace. Please don’t hesitate to reach out to me if you are concerned about the difficulty of this hike. I want friends to feel comfortable and assure that our pace won’t leave anyone behind.

If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to send me a message or post a comment below and I will reply. I will be keeping a close eye on the weather throughout the week. This event will be subject to change depending on weather conditions.
