We rented a 4 person UTV for an afternoon of fun with our two teenage boys. Great time in Jericho Park. The UTV was in great condition and the rental staff and owner were very hospitable and knowledgeable. I’ve already recommended to another family. Will do again someday.

Mt. Washington Auto Road

Drive yourself or take a guided tour on the historic eight-mile scenic road to the top of Mount Washington, the highest peak in the Northeast. Operations are always weather permitting. Be sure to visit our website for the current "Road Status." First opened in 1861, the Mt. Washington Auto Road is America's oldest man-made attraction.

If you have good weather (as we did) then the views are nothing short of spectacular! We did the drive up option for the last "Sunrise" trek of the season. Our first time there we had no idea what to expect. As said in other reviews, driving up is NOT for the faint of heart! We started going up at 5 AM so it was still dark. There were moments when we were literally 6-8 inches from the edge of the mountain and there are NO GUARDRAILS so all I can say was we took our time. The only complaint I have was with some of the other drivers on the road going up. Either they had done this multiple times and knew what to expect or they were just whacked out because they would tailgate and have their hi-beams glaring right into your eyes. I had to pull over onto one of the small overlooks that dot the way up in order for one guy in a pickup that had an obvious death wish to go past me. I was going at the prescribed 20-25 miles an hour mind-you. I can't fault the attraction for lame brains so that is why I still give 5 stars. It's definitely worth the experience of driving up at least once in your lifetime and then they offer the cog ride up or you can go with the local guided tour that takes a van up. As they say, "Just do it!" :)
