Potanipo Hill, Mountain summit in Brookline, New Hampshire, United States.
Potanipo Hill is a forested mountain in Brookline with rocky pathways and multiple marked trails of varying difficulty. The property has several entry points through which hikers can explore the terrain.
The mountain's eastern slope hosted one of New England's first ski areas, called Brookline Ski Area, until its closure in 1984. Since then the land has been converted to hiking and art programming.
The Andres Institute of Art uses the mountain as an open-air gallery, displaying works by international artists along the hiking paths. Visitors encounter sculptures positioned among trees and rocks throughout the landscape.
Access is available from multiple locations, including the Southway Trail Loop which offers options for various fitness levels. Visitors should wear sturdy footwear since the paths are rocky and can be challenging in places.
The mountain unusually combines outdoor recreation with an open-air art exhibition where sculptures share the natural space. This hybrid approach makes it a rare place where hiking and art appreciation overlap.
