A mile-long auto road leads to the top of 700-foot Cathedral Ledge where views across the Saco River Valley to the White Mountains can be enjoyed. The park can be also be accessed from hiking trails at Echo Lake State Park. Once on the top, a new accessible hiking trail leads to a view of the valley.
This is a 34.5-mile scenic byway that winds through the White Mountain National Forest. There are multiple lookout spots along the route. It connects North Conway and Lincoln, another cute town to explore.
The Cog is the first mountain-climbing cog railway in the world. In less than an hour, you’ll climb through three climate zones to arrive at the top of Mount Washington, 6,288'. You can visit the Mount Washington Observatory at the top and take in the scenic views!
