Discounted Cog Railway Tickets for Bretton Woods Vacations Guests (Email Delivery): SUMMER OPTIONS THROUGH OCTOBER 27

Operating for over 150 years, The Cog remains an exhilarating journey through history, technology and nature. Located in the heart of the majestic White Mountains region of northern New Hampshire, it was the first mountain-climbing cog railway in the world. With an average grade of 25%, it’s also the second steepest. A geared “cog and rack” mechanism and a trestle-mounted track system enable the train to easily and safely negotiate the precipitous grade and rugged, rocky terrain. The Cog offers 3-hour round trips to the summit, where you will have a chance to explore the summit of this beautiful mountain. Renowned as the home of “the world’s worst weather,” Mount Washington’s conditions at its 6,288’ summit are quite a bit different than those at the base station. Hurricane-force wind gusts occur on the summit an average of 110 days per year, but clear conditions reward visitors with unforgettable vistas from southern Quebec to the Atlantic Ocean 90 miles away. Alternatively, a 1-hour ride will take you to the Waumbek station. Located in an alpine meadow at roughly 4000’, clear conditions provide spectacular panoramic vistas from the southern Presidentials to the Canadian border. Passengers leave the train for about 25 minutes to enjoy complimentary hot refreshments, warming huts and a blazing fire pit. Round trips to Waumbek are roughly 1 hour, at reduced fares. Roast-your-own hot dogs and s’mores are available for purchase at the Base Station! More information can be found at www.thecog.com.
