Regional Guide: The White Mountains
FAMILY
Take the whole crew to Three Mile Island on Lake Winnepesaukee to swim, boat, and explore the 43 acres of rocky woodlands. Yopu can also learn about conservation from island volunteers.
When cabin fever strikes in the dead of winter, bring the family to Waterville Valley to forget your cold-weather woes. With skiing, snowshoeing, tubing, and skating, you and the kids will have fun for days.
Get loony with the loons at Lake Umbagog National Wildlife Refuge. Come view one of the northeast's most famous residents and hear the common loon's shrill, moving call.
The fishing in White Mountain National Forest is among the best in the state, and teaching your child to flyfish is a memory that will last longer than any trophy trout.
Guess the names of the landmarks in the Whites or use your imagination to improve upon the names given. From Old Man of the Mountain to Elephant's Head, naming rock formations is a game that's fun for all.
