The publication consists of seven hiking trails in and around the Franconia Notch State Park, located in the White Mountains of New Hampshire. Each hiking trail has a historical point of interest or contains the scene source of a local legend. Featuring hikes that range from easy to challenging, the guide not only describes the easy to follow wayfinding, but also points out exactly where to find the little known and often overlooked evidence of history and legends. These descriptions include pictures to aid in identification along the trail and are easy for hikers of all ages and abilities to use as a reference. This insider's guide also features descriptions of other opportunities to explore on your White Mountain vacation. You book the lodging and we will lead you to the adventures.
