Two miles east of Lincoln NH along the Kancamagus Highway (map) brings you to Loon Mountain Resort, a modern four-season resort that was founded as a ski resort but now also flourishes with outdoor mountain activities in the warmer months. Loon's skiers' gondola (four-passenger cablecar) operates in summer and autumn as well as winter, taking visitors on the 7100-foot (2164-meter) trip to the summit, 1850 feet (564 meters) above the base. A restored steam train takes happy kids on a short huff-puff ride from the main lodge to the parking area—lots odf fun! A full schedule of events and gatherings keeps Loon busy year-round. The Loon Mountain Resort website has details of the schedules. There are cafeterias at both the base and summit stations. Loon Mountain Resort
