9 Franconia Notch Pkwy, Franconia, NH
This is a great family bike path. I would not consider this for a "mountain bike path". It can get busy and there are often families, children on bikes, and walkers/runners. It is not meant for fast riding.
With that in mind - it is a fantastic trail to cruise on and has beautiful views
| ThankThis is a truly fun trail for families or cruising. I would not recommend hot-dogging on this trail because it is likely hikers or families with possible young children biking could be around each corner. I believe this is open for cross-county skiing in the winter.
| ThankPaved recreation path that follows the Franconia State park thru-way. No technical challenge whatsoever, however does provide some aerobic challenges with over a 1100 feet of vertical elevation traveling south to north over 6.5 mile stretch. Fun family ride with many scenic stops along the way. Lots of traffic in the form of bikers & hikers...Fun descent, but you really need to check speed in congested areas.
