Second time we've ridden the trash in the summer and waited around the rim. There's no denying that the views are amazing! Very busy Memorial Day weekend when we went, but that is to be expected. Definitely worth a stop.

Like the Flume Gorge down the road taking the aerial tram at Cannon Mountain is another "mandatory" experience while visiting New Hampshire in the summer. The ride up is really cool but the best part of the experience is the short hike up the Rim trail to see the views from the observation tower. We had a clear day hiking up the Rim trail, it was one of the most amazing experiences ever. You feel like your at the edge of the world!

We had lots of fun. A beautiful spot to check out. It was a bit foggy the day we went. Still had a great time. We bought our tickets in advance thinking maybe we would not have a bunch of people on the tram. It was packed. The view was awesome.

We took the Cannon Mountain Aerial Tramway to the Top. It was a cool ride and it was a unique and beautiful experience. At the top there is a small cafe where one can have snacks and drinks. There is an amazing trail at the top where one can see amazing views and click pictures. All in all it was an amazing experience. But try not to take the last tramway as it gives you the minimum time at the top.

what is there to do on top of the mountain

Nj H | Aug 23, 2021
Amy Geisel | Aug 23, 2021

We took the "long" trail (highly recommended!!!) which has stunning views. It leads you to the observation tower. Many young children were on this trail which has little short side paths (10-30 feet) where you can take stunning family photos if you choose. Try to go on a clear day. This probably would be a 15-20 minute hike. The "short" path may be steeper, but is much shorter and without the scenic views. There is also a food bar (we didn't eat there) and bathrooms. The observation tower gives a 360 view of the surrounding mountains. Make sure to order your tickets online or plan on waiting for an available time slot...if there is one.

I wouldn't suggest it they pack them people in but if you don't mind your Dog potentially being stepped on go for it

How often does the tram go up the mountain?

Cassandra Hamel | Aug 24, 2018
Ian Haas | Aug 24, 2019

It's every 15 except peak hours, when it's as fast as they can load it and 6 or 7 min one way. Don't listen to the tourists they're here asking questions too. Speed has zero to do with view and everything to do with conditions and how many people they can crank up and down the hill.
