Getting from Moultonborough to Topsfield, Ma

LIforrelaxin · 06-29-2006, 08:29 AM

Well as most people are heading to the lake this weekend, I unfortunatly have to head to a family gathering in Ma. Topsfield to be specific. Never having traveled there from the Lake, I am wondering if anyone has some advice on the best way to get to that part of Ma. from the lake....

thanks in advance

so i'd go down Rt16/Spaulding turnpike to 95S. there are several options to get from Moult to Rt16/Spaulding, and since I live off Rt 95 I have tried them all.

smoothest/more miles, but not much slower: 25 E to 16S to spaulding

alternate: 25 E to 109 to 171E to Rt16/Spaulding (windy road - not good for motion sickness). Scenic

2nd alternate: 25E to 109S thru Wolfboro to 28S to 11 to Rt16/Spaulding

it is going to take you about 2.5 hours no matter how you slice it

Tom,

Thanks for the advice, I used your alternate route and it worked great.....on Saturday....

Of course I feel bad for all those I passed going north who appeared to be stuck in grid look for many miles before and after the tolls on 95.....anyone know what happened?
