The White Mountains

Franconia Notch State Park

For forests painted gold and red in autum, granite peaks, and rushing rivers, The White Mountains of northern New Hampshire deliver.

Mount Washington, the tallest summit in the Northeast, anchors the range with its famously fierce weather and panoramic views.

Many of the attractions are along Route 302 and the region is crossed by the Kancamagus Scenic Byway.

Hiking

The heart of hardcore hiking culture, the White Mountains include Mt. Washington, the Presidential Range, and Franconia Ridge. Enjoy hut-to-hut trekking with the Appalachian Mountain Club.

Franconia Notch State Park is a particularly iconic hiking destination, with plenty of day hikes, dramatic peaks like Lafayette, Lincoln, and Cannon Mountains, along with well-provisioned campgrounds.
