Ice Skating & Sledding
The Town ice rink, maintained by the Highway Department (phone 423-8551), is located on O’Gara Drive behind the tennis courts. Naticook Lake is also enjoyed by many for ice fishing and ice skating. The ice is not monitored by the Town, so please use good judgment when using the lake, by testing the ice before you go on it.
Wasserman Park on Naticook Road and Weston Park on Turkey Hill Rd., have hills that are enjoyed for sledding.
In the summer months, we offer swimming in Naticook Lake at Wasserman Park. Lifeguards are on duty 5 days a week until the end of August, from 11:00 AM until 5:00 PM.

Hiking
If you enjoy hiking, the Heritage Trail begins at the Town Hall, or you may begin at the High School and follow the trail to the Souhegan River and Wildcat Falls. The Heritage Trail Map and trail descriptions is available in the Parks & Recreation office at Wasserman Park on Naticook Road. The Horse Hill Nature Preserve offers hiking trails in a variety of skill levels. The trail head for the Quarry Trail is found at the edge of the parking lot in Wasserman Park.
