‘Best skiing in the East’ no idle boast in the area around Mount Washington

The list of top-flight ski areas in the Mount Washington region seems almost endless, including mountain resorts named Attitash, Loon, Waterville Valley, Cannon, Bretton Woods and King Pine. Exciting and meticulously maintained downhill runs and a host of ski and non-ski activities for all ages and experience levels are the hallmarks of the region’s famous resorts. But there are delights for cross-country skiers, too, with hundreds of miles of trails weaving through riverside hayfields and mountain forests. The area also offers a variety of locations for snowshoeing, snow-tubing, skating, snowmobiling – even dog-sledding.
