About Mount Rowe

Rising to 1,680 feet in the Belknap Range of central New Hampshire, this modest summit sits near the shores of Lake Winnipesaukee, offering hikers a rewarding outing without demanding technical skill or significant elevation gain. The Belknap Range lies in the Lakes Region, and the surrounding landscape reflects that character, with views that frequently include the lake's broad expanse and the distant White Mountains. Trails here tend to be well-defined and approachable, making Mount Rowe an accessible objective for families and those newer to hiking. As one of the Belknap 12 peaks, it draws peak baggers working through this regional list, which showcases the range's varied summits. The relatively low elevation means limited above-treeline exposure, but the forested trails and lake-framed vistas give this peak a distinct charm within New Hampshire's broader hiking landscape.
