Fall Tours & Trips

I can hardly believe that it is already mid-September. This is my favorite time of year, so I hate to see it go by so quickly. It has been awhile since I gave an update of what we are doing for our Fall Trips & Tours.

Mondays: 9:00AM Day Break Update: Join me and the Recreation Staff for a fun and informational gathering which is guaranteed to help spruce up you vacation. This is also a great way to find other resort guests who may have similar interests and ideas on where to go during the week. 11:00AM Walk to Loon Mountain with Gondola Ride ($12/Adult if you go up the Gondola) Come for an invigorating walk along the East Branch Pemigewasset River on the Paved Bike Path. 2:00PM Cog Railway Trip and Moose Tour. Join me as we head to the Mount Washington Cog Railway. We will be taking the 4:00pm train to the summit of Mount Washington. As we head back down the mountain we will be facing west and will get to see a White Mountain Sunset. When we get back to the bottom of the mountain we will head to a local restaurant where we will have dinner which will consist of Pizza, Subs, and Soda. Last but not least, we will head out on the Moose Bus for a 3 hour Moose Tour in the White Mountains. We will return to the Resorts at approximately 10-10:30 PM. Cost for this trip is $85 per person. If you only wish to take the Cog Railway, you can caravan behind us for $42 per person. We did this trip for the first time this past Monday and had a great time. Trip occurs Rain or Shine. Be sure to bring your camera!!!

Tuesday, Thursday, or Saturday: 10:00 AM Awesome Autumn Tour. Climb aboard our super cool bus as we head up to Windy Ridge Orchard. Cost is $25 per person and includes lunch from the Cider House Cafe, 1/4 peck of apples that you will pick, stops at 2 covered bridges, a visit to the oldest General Store in the country, and transportation. This trip will last 4-5 hours.

Tuesdays: 11:00 AM Tour of Littleton Want to seethe world's longest candy counter? Join us for an afternoon trip up North to visit the Littleton Grist Mill, Chutters Candy Store and other various stores. Pack your own lunch and you can have lunch by the covered footbridge. Cost is $5 per person.

Wednesdays: 9:00 AM Everywhere & Nowhere Tour. Climb aboard with your fellow guests as you head out on an adventure packed day of twists and turns that lead you everywhere and nowhere. I never know where we will go, but you will have fun, see spectacular Fall Foliage and maybe some wildlife as well. Cost is $15 per person. 6:30 PM. Join Pemi Valley Excursions as they take you out on a 3 hour Moose Tour. So far this year they have a 98% success rate of spotting Moose. The ride includes Moosic, strobe lights, bubbles, video, and tour guide. Cost is $22 per person.

Fridays: 9:00 AM Ultimate Franconia Notch Trip. We will visit the Flume Gorge and Cannon Mountain Aerial Tram inside the picturesque Franconia Notch State Park. There is a fair amount of hiking on a pathway way in the Flume Gorge. At Aerial Tram you will purchase lunch at the summit of Cannon Mountain and have the option of going out to explore the 20 minute Rim Path. Take the path to the Observation Tower where you will climb the stairs to the platform to take in the 360 degree view. You can see into Vermont, Maine, Eastern New York and Southern Quebec. (Cost is $20 per person. Lunch can be brought by you in a cooler or you can purchase it at the Tram.) The picture at the top of the Blog was taken from the Rim Path.
