ATVs are restricted to specific days only. If you’ve seen hundreds of “This Car Climbed Mount Washington” bumper stickers around New England in your lifetime and you’re wondering whether it’s time to earn one of them yourself, read on!Ĭan you ride your bike up the Mount Washington Auto Road? Back then, people took their horse-drawn carriages up, called stages. The Auto Road opened in 1861, making it the oldest man-made attraction in the US. It’s a feast for the eyes as you drive through four distinct climate zones, from lush forests at the base to a barren, moon-like summit. On top of that, it’s one of the most spectacular drives in New Hampshire, along with the Kancamagus Highway. But nothing compares to the freedom you get when you drive up the 6,288-foot mountain yourself. There are several ways to experience the Mount Washington summit - you can hike your way to the top, take the excellent Mount Washington Cog Railway, or take the SnowCoach in winter. You can actually drive your own car to the top of Mount Washington, the highest peak in the Northeast US! The Mount Washington Auto Road is one of our all-time favorite adventures in New Hampshire.
