Moose Watching

Moose sightings are quite common in Mountain Country. Most common sightings are along Route 118; on the Kancamagus Scenic Byway especially near the Passaconaway Campground; and around Crawford Notch. Moose are often on the move at dawn and dusk, especially in low lying or swampy areas. If you see one - brake! If you want to watch them, pull safely over to the side of the road (watching for other cars), and stay in your car! Best bet: take a moose and wildlife tour with Pemi Valley Excursions, they’ll take you on a scenic tour of the best moose watching areas in the White Mountains. Remember, these animals are wild and can move quickly and unpredictably. Also, by staying in your car, you will be less likely to disturb the moose, and will more likely enjoy a longer period to view this majestic beast.
