==Geography== The town is in central [[New Hampshire]], in the western part of Merrimack County. It is {{convert|19|mi}} by road northwest of [[Concord, New Hampshire|Concord]], the state capital, and {{convert|41|mi}} southeast of the [[Vermont]] border at [[West Lebanon, New Hampshire|West Lebanon]]. According to the [[U.S. Census Bureau]], the town of Warner has a total area of {{convert|143.7|sqkm|order=flip}}, of which {{convert|143.0|sqkm|order=flip}} are land and {{convert|0.6|sqkm|order=flip|1}} are water, comprising 0.45% of the town.<ref name="CenPopGazetteer2021"/> The majority of Warner is drained by the [[Warner River]], which flows past the center of town. Two [[covered bridge]]s span the river: the [[Dalton Covered Bridge|Dalton Bridge]] and the [[Waterloo Covered Bridge|Waterloo Bridge]]. The southwestern section of town is drained by Amey Brook and its tributary, Warner Brook, and the northernmost end of town, on the slopes of Mount Kearsarge, drains both east and west to the [[Blackwater River (Contoocook River tributary)|Blackwater River]]. The Warner River, Blackwater River, and Amey Brook are all tributaries of the [[Contoocook River]], part of the [[Merrimack River]] watershed. [[Mount Kearsarge (Merrimack County, New Hampshire)|Mount Kearsarge]], elevation {{convert|2937|ft|m}} above [[sea level]], located in the extreme north of the town, is the highest point in Warner and in Merrimack County. Two state parks are located on the mountain: [[Rollins State Park]] in Warner and [[Winslow State Park]] in [[Wilmot, New Hampshire|Wilmot]]. Mount Kearsarge is a popular hiking destination, due both to its bare, rocky summit, and to the fact that a paved road climbs from Rollins State Park to within a half mile of the summit. The peak is the highest point along the {{convert|75|mi|km|adj=on}} [[Mount Sunapee|Sunapee]]-[[Ragged Mountain (New Hampshire)|Ragged]]-Kearsarge Greenway, a hiking trail which links ten towns and encircles the [[Lake Sunapee]] region of western New Hampshire. The town is served by [[Interstate 89]] and [[New Hampshire Route 103]]. State routes [[New Hampshire Route 114|114]] and [[New Hampshire Route 127|127]] cross the extreme southwestern and southeastern corners of the town, respectively. === Adjacent municipalities === * [[Andover, New Hampshire|Andover]] (north) * [[Salisbury, New Hampshire|Salisbury]] (northeast) * [[Webster, New Hampshire|Webster]] (east) * [[Hopkinton, New Hampshire|Hopkinton]] (southeast) * [[Henniker, New Hampshire|Henniker]] (south) * [[Bradford, New Hampshire|Bradford]] (west) * [[Sutton, New Hampshire|Sutton]] (northwest) * [[Wilmot, New Hampshire|Wilmot]] (north-northwest)
