Mt. Sunapee is a great place to explore during the summer months, with something for all ages and activity levels.

You’ll find several hiking trails that start at the base and lead to beautiful views from the summit. The Summit Trail is a moderate hike that takes about 90 minutes each way, or you can take the scenic chairlift up and hike back down. For a quieter route, the Lake Solitude Trail offers a peaceful walk to a small mountain lake.

If you're into mountain biking, Mount Sunapee has a network of lift-accessible trails designed for beginners through advanced riders. Bike rentals are available on-site.

The mountain also hosts summer events, live music, and local festivals—check the Mount Sunapee website for the latest schedule. Scenic chairlift rides run on weekends and are a relaxing way to take in the views without the hike.

There’s also an adventure park for families, with activities like a climbing wall, bungee trampoline, and mini-golf, typically open on weekends.

Whether you want to hike, bike, ride the lift, or just enjoy the scenery, Mount Sunapee has a mix of options to help you make the most of your summer stay.
