Hidden Gems in Warren

Beyond the well-known attractions, Warren has spots that locals love and visitors rarely find.

Baker River Bridge Swimming Hole

summer

A perfect roadside swimming hole tucked away on Route 118 with a gorgeous waterfall cascading into emerald green pools. Large sloping granite rocks provide natural sun-bathing spots, while stone steps make access easy. The clear water creates multiple swimming holes of varying depths, from shallow wading areas to deeper pools perfect for cooling off on hot summer days. Most visitors never notice this gem as they speed by on the main road.

McVetty Recreational Trail System (Warren Town Forest)

year-round

Nearly five miles of gentle trails wind through 120 acres of mixed hardwood forest in the foothills of Mount Moosilauke. The paths follow old woods roads and cross several streams, revealing remnants of forgotten farms including stone walls, cellar holes, and an old well. Informational panels along Park's Railroad and Bridle Path trails tell the stories of the area's past. The network provides Baker River access for fishing and quiet contemplation away from the crowds.

Warren Village Cemetery

year-round

A peaceful historic cemetery that holds the stories of Warren's early settlers and longtime families. The weathered headstones date back generations, with some interesting old carved symbols and epitaphs that reveal glimpses into 19th-century local life. Stone walls and mature trees create a serene atmosphere for reflection, and the elevated location offers glimpses of the surrounding hills. It's a place locals visit to connect with their town's deep roots.
