A trail in Stratham Hill Park near the Exeter Inn

Stratham Hill Park

Stratham Hill Park is a riding area that completely exemplifies the idea that sometimes good things come in small packages. While the available mileage here isn't all that grand, what is available is some wildly fun New England riding. Comprised of the short ups and downs that often characterize New England trails, Stratham surprisingly has some pretty steep sections that can be challenging on the way up and a ripping good time on the way down.
