Guided Adventures in New Hampshire - White Mountains Region


A drive along the roads that unroll among and around New Hampshire’s White Mountains gives any visitor a glimpse of the majestic beauty of the region. But for a deep dive into the landscape and the ways local people explore it, taking a guided outdoor tour with an expert is a smart strategy. Local guides can show you the best of the White Mountains on summer tours, family-friendly tours, even guided bus tours. Well-known names like Pinkham Notch and Franconia Notch (the New England word for a mountain pass) and the Kancamagus Highway give adventurers a resounding itch to get exploring.
Just moving around the mountains is just the start. In winter, businesses that rent ATVs and snowmobiles may provide a guide to the trails. In all seasons, experts lead scenic tours for hiking, biking, fishing, fishing, and other outdoor experiences. Don’t forget the guided moose excursions! These immense, elusive creatures are the pride of northern New England. An expert can lead visitors to views of moose in the wild on some of the best guided adventures in New England. Bus tours are a great option for people who are less inclined to do a vigorous walk up rocky peaks. These often have a theme and may include stops for dining and shopping, two of the most popular things to do in the mountain towns of Lincoln, Woodstock, Conway and Gorham, NH.
