Franconia Notch State Park

One of the most visited holiday areas in the White Mountains is the Franconia Notch (Gorge) State Park.
The park features pleasant walking trails. A prime feature of the park was the "Old Man of the Mountains", a face in profile, but this rocky crag collapsed in May of 2003.
