What To Expect

White Mountains Visitor Center

Our drive down the famously scenic Kancamagus Highway begins at the White Mountain Visitor Center. Get ready to see all the best sights the majestic White Mountains have to offer, and hear about the land's history, the Native American tribes who lived here, and the legends about how this mountain range formed. We'll start by hearing about the famous Old Man of the Mountain, the story behind the highway's fabulous fall colors, and the legend of the celestial bear who created the Milky Way galaxy! Next, we'll get some tips about moose-spotting and bird-watching. Note: This 35+mile-long tour covers the essentials of Kancamagus Scenic Byway in 2-3 hours. Buy once, use for one year! Ideal for extended visits and return trips over the next 12 months.

Hancock Overlook

An optional detour will take us to Hancock Overlook, our first really excellent glimpse of the majestic mountains.

Pemigewasset Overlook

Another optional detour will take us to the Pemigewasset Overlook, which offers a stunning view of the sparkling Pemigewasset River. Here, we'll learn about the importance this lifegiving river once had to the tribes who lived here.

Sabbaday Falls

Our drive continues to the Sabbaday Falls, a series of picturesque cascades in a narrow flume. But you'll find more than just the falls enthralling here! Depending on the season, the pools below can take on a deep, enchanting emerald color.

Mount Chocorua

The next stop on our drive is Mount Chocorua, another of the White Mountains' most awe-inspiring peaks. We'll learn not just about the mountain itself, but also about the chief for whom it is named, and the mystery which surrounds him.

Albany Covered Bridge

Our penultimate stop will be at Albany Covered Bridge, a humble piece of architecture that nonetheless proved invaluable to the settlers of the 1800s. We'll learn about how such a small structure can make a huge difference in the wilderness. Next, we'll get the truth about Wigwams and the revenge-driven Saco River Curse. Then, we'll hear the unlikely feud between one of America's richest families and a bunch of beavers, as well as the story of the last member of the Pennacook tribe.

The app worked perfectly!! You must download the tour while you have wi-fi, otherwise you will have no service. I was very impressed with the location feature of this app. It told us exactly what was coming up, so we were prepared for stops. It gave us informative and interesting tips and history, which made our trip that much more enjoyable!! Highly recommend this if it is your 1st time to travel the Kanc!

The stops along the Kancamugus Highway are stunning in autumn, and this audio tour made the journey even better. We listened to the main track plus all the bonus material. There were so many interesting stories, and the automatic starts when you reached the correct point along the path worked well. My husband commented that it was absolutely worth the $17 we spent!

I used several audio tour services while on vacation. Viator is the absolute worst. There was minimal commentary and extremely long periods of silence. Save your money and skip past Viator. Try GuideAlong, instead.

Elizabeth, my self-guided audio tour of the Kancamagus Scenic Byway is over 35 miles long and includes more than 50 audio stories. The tour is valid for a year so that you can revisit it anytime, and my support team is always here to help if you need assistance. If you have any further questions, feel free to contact me!
