Moultonborough: What are these roads like?

CrownRay · 05-15-2012, 08:42 AM

We have a house on Black Cat. I was thinking of taking our bikes up this weekend (pedal bikes that is). I was looking at a map to find a nice circle route near our house. Is anyone familiar with the following roads:

Red Hill Road to Bean Road to Squam lake Road to Range Rd to Sheridan Rd back to Whittier HW. It looks to be about 12 miles around, good for part of the ride I guess.

What are these roads like? I can see that they circle around Red Hill, but are these roads all UPHILL? I realize that there has to be some rise to them, but are we talking Tour-de-France type hills, or just your basic Owe, that hurt hills?

Thanks!

PS: If anyone can recommend a better circle route (20-30 miles) that would be great!
