Corridor 15 goes over the Castle property to West Ossipee. Keep in mind however that there is currently only one trail that goes over the mountain to Ossipee. Several years ago several trails there were closed to snomo traffic. You can no longer go up to Mts. Shaw or Roberts but the trip over to Ossipee is spectacular. If you want to shorten your trip from the lake, you can drive and park in a lot on route 171 in Moultonborough. The parking lot is just down the street from the entrance to the Castle. Also keep in mind that you can't actually sled anywhere near the castle. Once you get to West Ossipee, it is an easy trip to White Lake State Park and trails to Wonalancet, Lake Chocurua, Sandwich, Conway....... keep going!

Another way to get there off the lake is to take the trails from Melvin Village which exits the lake between Melvin Village marina and the big yellow house. It's an easy trail from there to the castle property.
