The 'Echo Lake' in the 'State Park' of the same name is very popular as a swimming lake in the summer months. A panoramic path leads around the lake; the place is also the starting point for hikes to the rocky cliffs 'Cathedral Ledge' and 'White Horse Ledge' with a spectacular view of the 'Saco River Valley'.

Hiking

Echo Lake State Park is a great place to take the family for a swim and picnic. A scenic walk around the lake offers beautiful views of the 700-meter-long Ledge Cathedral, which towers over the lake. A mile-long car road and trails lead to the top of Ledge Cathedral, where views across the Saco River Valley to the White Mountains can be enjoyed. Both the cathedral and the nearby White Horse ledges are popular rock and ice climbing walls.
