Driving directions to the location and spot to meet at:

Meet at the trailhead for the Franconia ridge trails.

From the south - Take I-93 - once in the notch the highway becomes one lane - trailhead parking exit is marked and is shortly after “The Basin” exit.  

From the north - Take I-93 and park at the Lafayette Campground.  There is a pedestrian tunnel to cross the highway and access the trailhead.

WARNING -  these two parking areas fill up fast.  See the link below for alternatives.   https://www.nhstateparks.org/activities/hiking/franconia-notch-hiker-parking

NOTE:  there is parking north of Lafayette Campground - it is accessed via  I-93 south bound and has a sign for tailhead parking.  Using this lot you can walk approximately 2 miles (along the Pemi Trail) to the campground and access the trailhead from there.  If parking here please plan ahead so you are at the trailhead at 8:30.
