Used the Action guide. Started at the visitors center and got hints where to stop. We took four hours. Hiked to the Sabbady falls. Stopped for a picnic lunch at the suspension bridge ( our first stop from Lincoln)

So much to see on this scenic drive. The Pemi Valley Overlook is the perfect spot to catch the sunset. Bring a meal and unwind. Numerous waterfall spots along the way to check out and it seems the later the day and during the week is best if you're looking for less crowds.

Make sure you stop at all the overlooks on this peaceful drive thru the mountains! Very peaceful drive thru nature. Enjoyed the walk around the pond at the Rocky Gorge! Lots of hiking everywhere!

We did the Kancamagus Highway in May of 2023. You could easily spend several days stopping at the different spots and hiking to various locations. We only had about four hours before it got dark. We left our hotel in Lincoln, NH and drove up the road and trying to hit the hot spots that we found online. We didn't have time to do much hiking, but there are close spots with scenic views and waterfalls. Beautiful part of the United States.

Beautiful drive with with scenic outlooks, short hikes, history, and waterfalls. Grab a map from either Lincoln or Conway that outlines all the stops!! Take your time and enjoy nature in this beautiful drive.

Beautiful highway that runs between Conway and Lincoln. There are so many interesting turn offs along the way. Our favorite was Sabbaday Falls and the Royal Gorge area. Take your time driving through and enjoy the scenery.

We rented a 3 Bedroom condo in Glen, originally to take our grandkids for a few days. It turned out they couldn't make it. Just gramma and grandpa and the dog. The condo was about 50 yards away from a river,(a tributary of the Ellis River?). We sat on the rocks and put our tootsies in. Still cold in August! We took a number of short ,easy hikes. I love the White Mountains! So majestic and beautiful, as are the surrounding woods and waterways! I think nature is so wonderful and this is a great place to see. Most trails were dog friendly. Went out to a great little restaurant and tavern in Jackson, called the Wildcat. We sat in the lounge,eating wonderfully prepared food and listening to live music.

We have been fortunate to ride the “Kanc” without much traffic. We have done most of our riding in later afternoons and have not had any problem finding parking places at the pull offs. We enjoyed listening to the Guide Along App as we drove the Kanc, it gives interesting stores and histories of the area. It also recommended the planes to pull off for scenery.

From the time we heard about the Kankamagus Highway, we knew we wanted to drive this scenic highway. Earlier this year our planned drive was thwarted by car trouble. So we returned...only to be driving the Kank on a rainy September day. We started in Lincoln, stocking up with sandwiches, deli salads, chips, and beverages, since there are no places to buy anything along this road. We had a map printed off the Internet; that was very helpful in identifying the scenic turnouts and other sites to visit. At the first couple scenic turnouts, the low-hanging fog was pretty despite obscuring the mountain views, and the trees provided a variety of colors and shapes in the foreground. The best stop was Sabbaday Falls, even in a steady rain (while we carried umbrellas). We passed on several other sites because it was raining too hard to enjoy ourselves.

My wife and I booked a New England Fall Foliage tour through a company we normally use for our guided overseas tours. The “K” highway was our focal point for the entire 9-day trip. As the title of this review mentioned, words alone cannot describe the views in autumn. If you are lucky enough to experience this beautiful 34 mile drive in the peak autumn timeframe, we recommend having a driver (or tour group) so your entire family can enjoy the views!
