Franconia Brook Tentsite
Franconia Brook Tentsite is located on the Eastside trail, on the East side of the Pemigewasset River, 3 miles in from the Lincoln Woods trailhead. There are approximately 20 tentsites available for overnight use. The tentsites are first come, first served, include a fire ring and are designated by a numbered stake. There are two pit toilets and water is available at the nearby East Branch. A bear box is available. When possible, please use the bear box instead of hanging food. Please note: the bear box does become full quickly, so plan accordingly and bring rope as a precaution. Remove all food and trash when leaving.
