The Lakes Region of New Hampshire offers its’ visitors wonderful hiking trails with lush forests and beautiful views. Hiking is a popular sport and can be a great adventure for the entire family. Mount Major in Alton Bay is a popular hike with an easy-to-find trail off of Route 11 and spectacular views at its summit, or visit Rattlesnake Mountain in Holderness, overlooking the beautiful Squam Lake. Those looking for a longer hike may prefer Mount Cardigan in Alexandria, a 4 hour hike starting at the AMC Cardigan Mountain Lodge. After a long day of hiking an ice cream stop is a must! Two great picks to try include classics like The Kellerhaus in Weirs Beach or The Town Docks in Meredith.

The Inn to Inn bike tour combines biking on the Northern Rail Trail with the luxury and convenience of being able to relax nightly in gracious inns, followed in the mornings by a gourmet breakfast before you hit the rail trail again.

Ziplining is a popular activity and there are lots of places to get your adrenaline going! Alpine Adventures in Lincoln was one of the first zipline tours in the northeast and spreads over 300 acres. Bretton Woods Canopy Tour in Bretton Woods has ten high-flying ziplines, two sky bridges and three rappels finishing with an 800 foot dual zip – a full day’s adventure!
