    Hiking

    The Old Bridle path is one of the more famous trails in Franconia Notch in the White Mountains of New Hampshire. This steep, strenuous trail is the most popular route to the summit of Mount Lafayette, and also leads to the AMC Greenleaf Hut. It is also often completed as part of a large, but amazing loop that includes the Falling Waters Trail up to the ridge where you summit Little Haystack, Mount Lincoln, and Lafayette, before heading down the Old Bridle Path.
