From Stunning Natural Features to Exciting Recreational Pursuits, the White Mountains Have it All

With stunning natural features such as the White Mountain National Park and the towering Mount Washington located along its terrain, New Hampshire’s White Mountains region is one where you can certainly get your fill of recreational activities.

No matter which of its charming villages or cozy towns draws you in, the White Mountains offer a standing invitation to enjoy nature’s beauty on an adventure that suits your abilities. Whether you want to canoe down the Saco River near Glen or hike to the summit of Mount Chocorua from your Conway vacation rental, the possibilities are virtually limitless when you set up your home base in this area.

Since you are putting so much effort into your hiking, mountain biking, and climbing expeditions, you will probably want a visible reward at the end of hard day. Fortunately, the Flume Gorge in Franconia, the Madison Boulder Natural Area in Madison, the Bath-Haverhill Bridge in Bath, and Glen Ellis Falls in the Pinkham Notch will never let you down with their utterly breathtaking and easily accessible nature.

However, it doesn’t all have to be about strenuous excursions. You can sit back and enjoy the steep climb up Mt. Washington aboard the Mount Washington Cog Railway or you can take the wheel on the spectacularly scenic Kancamagus Highway, which stretches from Lincoln to Conway.

Even as the seasons change and snow begins to blanket the mountaintops, all you need to do is grab your gear and go for countless days of exciting new adventures. With unbeatable options such as Cannon Mountain, the Bretton Woods Mountain Resort, Cranmore Mountain Resort, Attitash Bear Peak in Bartlett, the Black Mountain Ski Resort and the Wildcat Mountain Ski Area in Jackson all at your fingertips, the White Mountains truly are a winter wonderland.
