Radeke Cabin

Nestled just off the iconic Kancamagus Scenic Byway, Radeke Cabin offers a unique historical experience for those looking to immerse themselves in the New Hampshire wilderness. Originally serving as a summer camp for University of New Hampshire forestry students, this federal site was acquired by the USFS in 1969. Situated at an elevation of 1246 feet, the cabin provides a tranquil, year-round basecamp for outdoor enthusiasts seeking a connection to the region's rich academic and natural history.

The terrain surrounding the cabin is characteristic of the rugged Northeast, offering immediate access to local hiking trails, including the nearby UNH Trail. While the setting is easily accessible by car, guests should come prepared for a rustic experience. The site provides basic amenities including fire rings and vault toilets, but visitors are encouraged to pack all necessary gear and supplies to ensure a comfortable stay in the forest.

This site is an ideal getaway for families or small groups who prefer a cabin-based experience over traditional tent camping. Whether you are planning a winter retreat or a summer excursion, Radeke Cabin provides a simple, quiet atmosphere away from the bustle of city life. Please plan accordingly as this is a remote, self-sufficient location managed by the Forest Service.
