Mount Washington State Park |
Mount Washington State Park, a 59-acre parcel perched on the summit of the Northeast's highest peak, is surrounded by the extensive 750,000-acre White Mountain National Forest. On a clear day views from the 6,288-foot summit extend beyond New Hampshire as far as 130 miles to Vermont, New York, Quebec, Massachusetts, Maine and the Atlantic Ocean. A modern summit building houses a cafeteria, restrooms, gift shops, the Mt. Washington Observatory and its museum. The historic TipTop House is located adjacent to the summit building and is open to visitors when staff is available.
The highest point on the Appalachian National Scenic Trail is within this park. More backcountry visitors are attracted to the area of the trail, between Franconia Notch State Park through Gorham, than any other area.
