Frankenstein Cliff Details
Towering 1,400-feet above the Saco River and Crawford Notch State Park, this attraction is almost as ominous as its name implies. Named after the German painting Godfrey Frankenstein (and not Mary Shelleys evil scientist), this tree-topped cliff is equally as mesmerizing from its base and its peak. Hike to the top of the cliff via the Arethusa Falls trail and enjoy the sweeping views of Mount Washington, New Hampshires tallest mountain. Or stop at the cliffside and enjoy Mount Crawford, Bartlett Haystack, and Mount Tremont off in the distance.
