This video takes you along the 9-mile paved Franconia Notch bike path in New Hampshire, showcasing the park’s natural beauty and diverse terrain.
The rider, on a Lectric XP4 e-bike, navigates rolling hills and some root-laden sections of the trail. Along the way, you’ll discover hidden gems like a natural swimming pool with crystal-clear water [05:41] and the fascinating Hagawasi River Pothole, a geological marvel formed during the ice age [06:09]. The path also offers picturesque views of Echo Lake [13:30] and exhilarating sections through tunnels and over bridges [04:54].
After the invigorating bike ride, the adventure continues with a tram ride up Cannon Mountain. For around $20, you can ascend to approximately 4,000 feet, where breathtaking panoramic views await [26:00]. A short 10-minute hike from the tram’s drop-off point leads to a watchtower at the summit, offering even more spectacular vistas [26:07]. The video concludes by highly recommending the tram ride as the perfect complement to the e-bike trail, noting the presence of New Hampshire’s highest elevation bar at the visitor center [26:49].
