Welcome back the Mt. Kearsarge Hill Climb Race in Warner, New Hampshire!
After a few years' hiatus the event triumphantly returned to the hill climb calendar in 2023,. The Mt. Kearsarge Hill Climb Race is an 8 mile climb up Kearsarge Mountain Rd. onto the Mt. Kearsarge access road with a finish at the summit parking lot (elev. 2,937 ft). The first 4.5 miles includes some uphill, level, and downhill sections! The access road is 3.5 miles with an average grade of 8.7% and 1,738 feet in elevation gain. When you reach the top, you'll be rewarded with a bare rock summit where, on a clear day, you can see as far as Boston and to the mountains in southern Vermont.
Race date is Sunday, August 11th.
