We Are Planning for the Future!

There is no doubt that Mount Agamenticus has been discovered! Over an estimated 50,000 people visit the area each year to enjoy its natural beauty, scenic vistas, and unique network of over 40 miles of trail. It has become apparent through visitor feedback, direct observation and vehicle traffic studies that use continues to increase and the area needs attention to address this growth.

Parking improvement and public restroom upgrades have been proposed for both the summit and base of Mount Agamenticus.  Visit the Planning for the Future page for more information about this project, including planning documents, photos, maps and video showcasing the work to date.
