Enjoy a leisurely 15-minute ride to the summit on the four-passenger, aptly named Panorama Chairlift. Disembark to marvel at the breathtaking views of Lake Winnipesaukee below and the White Mountains beyond. On a clear day, Mount Washington, 50 miles away as the crow flies, can be seen rising among the Presidential Range. Explore hiking trails or pack a picnic lunch to be enjoyed at the summit. The chairlift runs continually to take you back to the base area at your convenience.
We also offer one-way scenic chairlift ride tickets for those who would prefer to hike up and ride down, or ride up and hike down. Stop by the ticket office in the base area to purchase your ticket before you set out.
