Mount Equinox Skyline Drive

This is not an official byway but it is fantastic! From Route 7A between Manchester and Arlington, this toll road climbs 3,248 feet over 5.2 miles to the summit. It is the longest privately owned paved toll road in the United States, open since 1947. The 7,000-acre mountain is owned by the Carthusians, who built their monastery, the only one of its kind in North America, on the slopes. Hairpin turns and steep grades demand attention on the ascent and the descent. Motorcycles and cars are welcome; buses and RVs are not. Skip on overcast days (the views are the whole point).
