The Shore Path

The Shore Path was a walkway along the eastern, Lake Winnipesaukee edge of the Methodist Campground. It followed the shoreline around Doe Point, from today’s Winnipesaukee Pier to the Akwa Marina. For the most part, the pathway no longer exists, as private lakefront property homeowners have closed off access over the years.

The publisher of the postcard below, Detroit Publishing, has cleverly inserted their logo onto the sidewalk, on the lower left. 

The Shore Path

The Shore Path had a great view of the Lake. Seen here are Pinnacle Hill and Mount Chocorua.

Various postcard views of the Shore Path.  The first card called the path the “Sore” Path and mis-spelled the “Wiers”. The card shows a family gathered at their house on the Weirs waterfront, but does not show the actual path.

The following postcards show the entrance to the Shore Path. All of the postcards and photos of the Shore Path on this webpage are looking in the same, northward direction.

Ladies fishing, along the Shore Path. Brickyard Mountain is seen descending down to the lake in the background of the photo.

Brickyard Mountain is once again seen descending down to the lake in the background of this postcard, postmarked in 1908.
