Mount Abraham Details

It should go without saying, but the picturesque views atop this mountains 4,052-foot summit are nothing short of astounding. Starting at the Lincoln Gap parking lot, you will wind your way up the slopes approximately 2.5-miles to the peak for a total elevation gain of 1,735-feet.

But the views of Camels Hump, New Hampshires Mount Washington, and New Yorks Adirondacks make this one of the most scenic sections of the Long Trail.
