Library Membership
Share New Hampshire’s natural world with your patrons!
A $300 Library Membership allows up to four $12 trail admissions each day from May 1 through November 1, from 9:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., with the last admission at 3:30 p.m.
The 3/4-mile live animal trail has up close views of black bear, coyote, mountain lions, bobcats, river otters, foxes, and more, all in natural woodland enclosures. Trailside buildings feature interactive exhibits that teach natural history concepts in meaningful and memorable ways. There are miles of other trails to explore – the Ecotone, the Forest, and the Mt. Fayal Trails.
We look forward to sharing an exciting trail season with your patrons and ask that you make them aware of the following:
- Library Patrons must bring the dated pass with them to the Admissions window at the Welcome Center. Patrons do not need to call to make advance reservations.
- Prior to arrival, patrons should review the Know Before You Go information for the latest health and safety policies and procedures.

Leave with some ideas of things you can do in your community to be an Earth Hero!
