*Nature Walk*	Get Fit #1: Tower Hill Pond Loop Hike Meeting Time: 11:00 AM Event Coordinator: Gandalf Auburn, NH Max # People: 10 Trip Guiding / Event Fee: No, I will not be asking participants for money Difficulty Level: Easy
SUMMARY: Our first of four GetFit Hikes! Tower Hill Pond Loop Trail is a 3.8 mile loop trail that features a lake and is good for all skill levels! With COVID, it has become a crowded trail so please have face mask for the traihead and when we encounter people. Dogs are also able to use this trail but must be kept on leash. Although you are right outside of Manchester, NH you feel like you're in the middle of the White Mountains. The beauty and quiet of the surroundings is unmatched. It's a great place to just get away. A fun loop, not very technical. Bring lunch and a some water. We are keeping the hike at 10 people to make it easier to practice the recommended social distancing of keeping about 6 feet of distance between everyone. Join us for a short hike in the great outdoors for some fresh air and some much needed camaraderie!
Driving directions to the location and spot to meet at: To get here, Get off at Exit 2 from Rte.101. If driving down 101 East, take a right at the end of the ramp towards Auburn/Chester on Rte 121. [If driving down 101 West, then take a left at the end of the ramp.] Then, take your first left (just after Bar & Grill) onto Rte 27/ Old Candia Rd. About a half mile in, look for Tower Hill Road on the left. Head 0.4 mi up this dirt road, you’ll see gated trail accesses on the left; simply park alongside the road. We are taking the trail from the second gate on the left. We'll be driving a blue Toyota Tacoma.
