By land you are looking at around an hour +/- 10 minutes. As was stated in a previous post you MUST travel over an ice surface at least three or four times from Gilford to the Castle trail. Once over Paugus bay, another in Meredith Bay, then on Lake Kanasatka and finally Ambrose Cove.
When on the tracks between Weirs and Meredith you will want to look to your right well before you come into the bay area and there is a steep drop off the tracks on to the lake. Then you access the trail next to Lago. That trail takes you up and over Route 25B and into Center Harbor, eventually on Kanasatka and then down the Moultonboro Neck and over Ambrose Cove.
Have fun. PM me for more info.

Because the weather was overcast on Saturday we decided that making it to Mt. Shaw wasn't a priority. We had a wonderful ride , stopped at Mugs in Winter Harbor, and had an ice cold beer and the best cheeseburger I've had in ages!!!
