Went on a very cloudy day, but still an unforgettable experience. There are pull offs on your way up and down. The route basically takes you from the entrance, to the top, and down the same path. Recommend pulling off at the lower-elevated pull offs...Read More

This was a fair weather day. They tell you when buying tickets how the weather is at the top. So you can choose to go, or not. I drove 3 hours, and I'm doing it no matter the weather. I'm glad I did. It's...Read More

Our experience would be more than 5 stars if the office let us know there was no point of going up because of the huge cloud there. Unfortunately, we didn’t have enough time before the closing to wait and get a chance to see the...Read More

Because it’s lead peeping season, the price for the car and driver is upped from $25 to $30, plus $5 for each passenger. That said, the road is beautifully maintained and the views as you head up are stunning. There are stopping places along the...Read More

If you've driven the Mt Washington auto road and are expecting a similar experience you will be disappointed. 5 stars still because I'm rating this experience not comparing it to anything else. This is a nice mountain ride with minimal parking at the summit. ...Read More

Very cool experience. It was $20 for the car plus driver and $5 per passenger. For $25, it was well worth it. We visited on 10/13/18 and the foliage was beautiful. What was even cooler was the snow up top. ...Read More

This is a nice drive up and down the mountain, 5.2 miles each way. The visitor center at the top is fairly basic, but makes for a nice half way point with lovely views, restrooms and information about the Carthusian monks. It’s not...Read More

Definitely worth the visit on a clear day. Reasonable entry fee. I think it's $20 for 1 vehicle and driver. $5 per each additional person. Make sure you have good reliable brakes. You'll need them coming back down the mountain. Beautiful visitor center with viewing...Read More
