The Mount Washington Cog Railway, the world’s first
mountain-climbing cog railway, is offering special reduced fares for all New Hampshire
residents. From February 22 thru March 1, big kids and small will all enjoy a one-hour
scenic ride to mid-mountain Waumbek Station at the normal children’s fare of $38. For
adults, that amounts to a $14 discount over regular winter rates.
At Waumbek Station, guests relax in comfortable warming huts and enjoy hot cocoa and
marshmallows toasted over an open campfire at about 4,000 feet, creating a memorable
winter experience for the whole family.
“We’re happy to offer this special opportunity to our fellow Granite Staters,” says Rob Arey.
“Riding The Cog in winter is a truly unique experience. Folks have told us that toasting
marshmallows while sipping hot cocoa on the side of Mount Washington made this a
bucket-list item they didn’t even know they needed to check off!”
To take advantage of this offer, New Hampshire residents simply need to present a valid
NH photo ID upon arrival at the Cog Railway base station. When booking online in advance,
use the promo code “NHvacation” at checkout. NH IDs are required.Purchase tickets!
