Belknap Mountain, Mountain summit in Belknap County, United States.

Belknap Mountain is a summit in Belknap County, New Hampshire that rises to 2,382 feet above sea level. The peak features a fire tower and communications tower at its summit, making it a recognizable landmark across the region.

The mountain takes its name from Jeremy Belknap, an 18th-century preacher and historian who recorded early New Hampshire history through his writings. This naming recognizes his contributions to documenting the region's past.

The mountain's fire tower serves as a central observation point for the New Hampshire Division of Forest and Lands, monitoring forest conditions from April to November.

Several hiking trails lead to the summit with varying difficulty levels for different skill levels. The best time to visit is during warmer months when the trails are in good condition.

The mountain contains rock formations created by volcanic activity during the Jurassic period as part of the White Mountain Magma Series. This deep geological history is what makes it interesting to geology enthusiasts.
