Description
The Flume is a stunning natural gorge in Franconia Notch NH at the base of Mt. Liberty. The walls of granite rise to a height of 70 to 90 feet and range from 12 to 20 feet apart. The state park is almost 6,700 acres. Every year, hundreds of feet of the Flume pathway is removed due to large amounts of ice buildup on the walls of the Flume Gorge. Ice can get 3 to 4 feet thick and rise up to 80 feet high on the walls of the Flume. The pathway is rebuilt every Spring to allow visitors to walk the Flume pathway. The pathway of the Flume is normally reopened by Memorial Day weekend. The best time to go there is in late Spring when the winter snow melt contributes to the water in the streams, giving a spectacular view of the waterfalls. Another great time to go is during the Fall Foliage season in New Hampshire, as seen in the image. The tree colors and the dry cool days make it a great experience. The Flume can also make a great refuge from the hot summer heat in New England.

Thank you very much, Janice. We went here 4 years ago. I have fond memories of going here with my family when I was young.
