The annual Fields of Lupine Festival is a celebration of
the arrival of Spring. The communities of Franconia,

and pastures in a rolling sea of purples, pinks, blues
and whites. The blossoms attract dazzling
butterflies and create
a breathtaking floral display against the backdrop of
the mountain ranges. Tour
guide books are available
with daily events throughout the month, weekend specials and
includes hospitality and shopping coupons for use throughout
the festival.
Filled with entertainment

the village of Franconia, with a mountain bike ride along a

swim across Echo Lake,
and a sprint uphill
to the Cannon Tramway finish line. Billed as not exactly "a walk
in the Park",
a popular and very competitive annual event for triathlon aficionados. |
