The Flume Gorge, New Hampshire

The Flume Gorge is located in the White Mountains region of New Hampshire and is a popular spot during the fall. This is part of the Franconia Notch State Park. The Flume is a natural deep gorge between two mountains. There are two walking trails. Of course, we did the easier one. It still had stairs and some steep paths and took us through the gorge and a beautiful water fall.

You can either ride the bus from the visitor center to the base of the trail or walk. If we walk, we get to see a New Hampshire covered bridge over the Pemigewasset river

Other interesting spots in the White mountains are the summit of Mt. Cannon and the Kancagamagus scenic highway. Of course, the best time to visit would be the fall season. The trick to getting the best fall colors is to visit not too early and not too late. Keep checking foliagenetwork.com and visit between high and peak colors, which is usually during the Columbus Day weekend.
