On the Gale River. One tradition says the community was named after Sir Francis Bernard, early landholder; another says it was named for the region's resemblance to the Franconian Alps of Germany. The region once produced pig iron and bar iron for farm tools and cast-iron ware. Well-known residents have included Robert Frost, poet. Cannon Mountain, high in beautiful Franconia Notch, is New Hampshire's version of Shangri-La. In just 8 minutes you can soar to Cannon's 4,200 foot summit on our 80-passenger aerial tramway. Or visit Echo Lake at the base of the mountain - while the kids enjoy the crystal clear water and play in the sand, you can relax on the white sandy beach. Later tour the covered bridges and glacial formations at the Flume Gorge. Cannon is close to dozens of other attractions - great places to eat, sleep, and shop...and its Parkway location makes it easy to get to from anywhere in New England. Cannon Mountain is 7,500 acres of pristine mountain splendor and FUN!! You'll be amazed at how much there is to see and do at Cannon Mountain and Franconia Notch State Park, even in the summer -- swimming... boating... biking... hiking - you'll probably never get it all in (but think of the fun you'll have trying).
