If you are looking for diversity, you will certainly find it in New Hampshire. From lakes to beaches, waterfalls to woods and mountains to sea coast, the state has huge potential for outdoor vacations, including downhill or cross-country skiing in winter. With no less than seventy-five state parks that offer natural areas, hiking trails, beaches and historic sites, New Hampshire caters for a variety of tastes. Crawford Notch State Park in Harts Location has picturesque waterfalls, wonderful mountain views and opportunities for viewing wildlife. You can go hiking and fishing there as well as pay a visit to the historic Willey House. Monadnock State Park, unlike some other state parks, is open all year round for hiking. Want to go swimming? You will find five state park beaches along the coast of New Hampshire, such as Wallis Sands with its view of the rocky Isles of Shoals. On North Hampton State Beach and Jenness Beach you can have a picnic as well as a swim. When you've finally had your fill of fresh air, head for the Museum of New Hampshire History in Concord with exhibits focusing on heritage and traditions; children should enjoy them just as much as adults.

The remains of the old granite quarry were fun to see. It was a perfect fall day for hiking a colorful forest. Add over 100 sculptures from all over the world, and you have an ideal place to visit. We hiked 2 1/2 hours and there was so much more to see. An unlocked port-a-potty would have been a nice addition.

Our visit to the Currier Museum of Art was much too brief, and I can’t wait to go back. It is a beautiful gem in Manchester, with a wonderful permanent collection, fascinating temporary exhibits, and access to a great tour of the Zimmerman house by Frank Lloyd Wright (reservations highly recommended, separate fee for the tour). There is also an excellent café for light meals, a great gift shop, nicer than many museum shops I have visited, and free parking in the museum lot. Don’t miss this fantastic spot while visiting Manchester!

The Hood has been renovated, and it is a beautiful re-design with an incredible collection of international art. The recent exhibitions have focused on exquisite Native American and "third world" art.

A magnificent jewel in Jackson, representing the history and gorgeous paintings. The newly commissioned painting is breathtaking. Warren is amazing and Jackson is lucky to have such a gentleman leading this organization. We try to visit each time we are in Jackson.
Museum dedicated to the works of Cornish Art Colony artists.
