Written Directions

NH route 49 from West Campton to Waterville Valley, NH

Scenery

Road has rolling sweepers through White Mountain National Forest. It parallels the Mad River, which can run very swift during snowmelt in the spring. There are a few pullout that overlook the river.

Drive Enjoyment

Wide shoulders designed to support bicyclists and joggers that frequent this route. From West Campton it is a gradual altitude climb for 12 miles. Waterville Valley is an affluent ski resort so the road is well maintained. In July 2017 the road was in excellent condition.

Tourism Opportunities

Waterville Valley has numerous restaurants and lodging opportunities. The amenities will be pricey, but definitely first rate accommodations.

I submitted this route to MCR and still find it one of those relaxing and rhythmic runs in the White Mountains. The resort town at the east end has some excellent restaurants.
