Kancamagus Highway - Rocky Gorge Scenic Area

This beautiful scenic area is accessed via a paved walkway from a large parking area where rest rooms are available. There is a foot bridge over the gorge which provides an excellent photo opportunity looking upstream to where the Swift River narrows as it cascades into the gorge. The foot path on the other side of the bridge gradually ascends a small rise to Falls Pond. There is a mile long trail around the pond which is a popular fishing area. In winter this is also an access point for the Nanamocomuck Ski Trail. Swimming in or jumping into the gorge is prohibited and is strictly enforced.
