Join us for a great hiking experience in the White Mountains of New Hampshire. We will hike the iconic Franconia Ridge- featuring waterfalls, and amazing above treeline views in the Alpine Zone. The hike is about 9 miles and ascends about 4000 feet. We will ascend up the Falling Waters Trail, traverse along the Franconia Ridge over Little Haystack Mt, Mt. Lincoln, and Mt. Lafayette. After enjoying lunch, we will descend on the Bridle Path Trail to the Greenleaf Hut where you can refill your water bottles & then continue back to our starting point. Hikers are welcome to stay over at my house 15 minutes from the trailhead on Friday & Saturday nights. There is plenty of room at the house and also camping is available on the property. We will have a potluck after the hike for hikers. Enjoy a hot shower after the hike or jump in the private clothing optional pond.
Meet at Bridle Path/Falling Waters parking lot- northbound side of Rt. 93 or carpool from my house (15 minutes from trailhead).Please email me for directions to the house or trailhead if needed.
