THE LABYRINTH IS AN ANCIENT TOOL for worship, problem solving and
healing. Early civilizations all over the world used these forms on the earth, in temples and
cathedrals, on pottery and architectural facades. Many old labyrinths remain, and new ones
are being created. TRAILS: YOU ARE INVITED TO HIKE THE TRAILS. The WMHC has almost three miles of trails that are open to the public during daylight hours, and in the winter are available for snow-shoeing (or cross-country skiing for the more adventurous — some are pretty steep). The easiest route is to start at the top at Kyle’s Trail and work your way down to the Center. Kyle’s trail leaves from a log landing off a Madison NH Class VI Town Road (Albert Rd) , one half mile up Colby Hill Road on the right. The trail is named in honor of Kyle Koch, who built it with a team of Boy Scouts while working on his Eagle project. The landing is only 400 feet on the right from Colby Hill. The trail works its way to breath-taking views of Chocorua, Mount Washington, the Moats, and the mountains of central New Hampshire. Along the way one can stop at Stone Cutter’s Rest, a setting area cut in the granite over 100 years ago. It is a wonderful picnic destination.
