Open daily, Lost River Gorge offers a Forest Adventure Trail, treehouse, and suspension bridge, throughout the natural display of glacial boulders, caves, and waterfalls.

If you’re one for some elevation, you can also explore the summit caves at Loon Mountain Resort located at 60 Loon Mountain Road in Lincoln.
