A good stop for food, restrooms and detailed information on Franconia Notch, the Flume Gorge Visitor Center is best known as the gateway to an amazing 800-foot long chasm with granite walls rising as high as 90 feet. For a fee, you can travel a two mile path from the Flume Visitor Center that takes you on boardwalks into the gorge and up close with waterfalls, flowers, ferns and mosses. Other attractions along the path include Sentinel Pool and Sentinel Pine Bridge, one of the oldest covered bridges in the state and built over the fallen Sentinel Pine, one of the largest trees in the state before falling across the Pemigewassett River in 1938. Shorter walking routes are available for those who don’t want to do the full loop. After the Society for the Protection of NH Forests helped the state purchase Franconia Notch in 1927, it maintained ownership of The Flume Gorge Reservation for 20 years, running it as a park. In 1947, the Flume Gorge became part of Franconia Notch State Park

Very popular attraction (for a great reason). It is a 2-mile self-guided nature walk through the Flume Gorge, a spectacular natural chasm. Along the walk, you will discover covered bridges, amazing waterfalls, a scenic pool, and incredible mountain views. During the winter the visitor center closes and they remove walkways through the chasm, but you can still hike and watch the ice climbers. The hike itself is great for almost all ages. The inclines are gradual and the hiking paths are very wide and gravelled. You can book online to reserve a spot. Tickets are sold at the window counter if there are any spots left. Address: Route 3, Off I-93 Exit 34A, Lincoln, NH Website: https:// www. nhstateparks. org/visit/park-sites/flume-gorge ** In the winter, there is no charge to go in, but the walkway thru the Flume is closed, but you can still see the Flume and ice climbers and hike the 2 mile loop.

30 minute drive The Flume Gorge is two-mile self-guided nature walk. The Flume within Franconia Notch was formed 200 million years ago, it's a natural gorge with spectacular waterfalls, vistas and covered bridges. The Gilman Visitor Center is good for some souvenir/gifts, restrooms, cafeteria, historical displays. A must see.
