Sunrise Drive on Mt. Washington Auto Road

The Mt. Washington Auto Road opens early on three Sundays every summer, allowing guests to drive themselves to the summit of Mount Washington to view the sunrise from the highest peak in the Northeast. Due to the popularity of these sunrise opportunities, we recommend not waiting until the last minute to arrive as you may spend time waiting at the Toll House due to traffic. The State Park building on the summit will be open with limited food service on all three of these mornings.

June 24 Road Opens 3:30 a.m.; Sunrise at 5:01 a.m.

July 29 Road Opens 4 a.m.; Sunrise at 5:31 a.m.

August 26 Road Opens 4:30 a.m.; Sunrise at 6:02 a.m.
