There's nothing nicer than sitting by a river and watching the water as it travels downstream. Why not pack a picnic and spend a quiet afternoon at Saco River?

Situated in United States of America, this flowing body of water is well worth including on your itinerary. But you'll find loads more to see and do in the area. Cranmore Mountain Resort, Settlers' Green Outlet Village, and Conway Scenic Railway aren't too far from Saco River.
