Travel New Hampshire

Introduction

New Hampshire is a state of many faces. It's home to the White Mountains and the seacoast, and it contains everything from rolling green hills to dense forests. No matter where you're heading in this northern New England state, you'll find beautiful scenery that will make your trip worthwhile. Here are some of our favorite places to visit when you travel New Hampshire:

Amherst

The town of Amherst is named after an English town in Hampshire, England. Established as a township in 1780, it was incorporated as a town by Governor John Langdon on February 14, 1808.

The village of Amherst was originally part of the town of Amherst and became its own entity when it incorporated in 1799. It occupies 3.2 square miles (8.3 km²), while the whole town encompasses 31 square miles (80 km²).

Hampton Beach

Hampton Beach is a popular summer destination that is known for its beautiful boardwalk, restaurants and shopping. The beach is also very family friendly, with activities like mini golf and bumper boats for kids. There are several hotels on the shore that offer discounted rates during off-season months (November through April).

New Hampshire International Speedway

New Hampshire International Speedway is located in Loudon, New Hampshire. The track hosts events all year round and is the home of NASCAR races. The 1.058-mile oval track has been open since 1990, but was completely remodeled in 1994 to increase its capacity from 60,000 to 120,000 seats. It includes a quarter mile oval track and a 1/2 mile road course that runs alongside the oval track inside NHIS’ infield area.

The NHIS has hosted many famous drivers including Jeff Gordon (4), Tony Stewart (3), Jimmie Johnson (2), Dale Earnhardt Jr.(2) and Kyle Busch(2). They also host events like “WinterFest” which is held every February with drag racing and other winter sports like snowmobiling or ice fishing contests for those who want to try something different during the cold months of wintertime when the ground outside is covered with snow!

If you’re planning on attending an event at NHIS then parking will be free if you arrive early enough before gates open around 11am on Saturdays or Sundays so plan accordingly! There are no restrooms available except inside security checkpoints where they have portable toilets set up near each entrance gate; so make sure you go beforehand because once inside there’s nowhere else outside besides porta potties unless you leave again right away - which isn't recommended unless absolutely necessary because leaving means losing your spot without guaranteed reentry later on down the road when traffic gets heavy again...

Mount Washington

Mount Washington is the highest peak in New Hampshire, and it's also the home of a weather station. The mountain has an elevation of 6,288 feet (1,916 meters). It straddles the border between Pinkham Notch and Crawford Notch along Route 16.

Lake Winnipesaukee

Lake Winnipesaukee is the largest lake in New Hampshire, with a surface area of over 70 square miles. It is also a popular tourist destination and the center of many summer activities, including sailing and windsurfing. In addition to being a great place for fishing and boating, the lake offers many beautiful places to visit around its shoreline.

One specific area that stands out for its natural beauty is Loon Bay State Marine Park on Lake Altona. This park has 2 miles of sandy beaches along an arm of Lake Winnipesaukee that's connected via a narrow channel at low tide. It's also home to several rare plants and animals, such as yellow-bellied sapsucker woodpeckers, horned grebes (ducks with red bills), bald eagles (birds with white heads) and white-tailed deer (animals with four legs). Although it's only open during summer months when there aren't any storms coming in from Canada or elsewhere up north due to global warming issues caused by human activity like deforestation worldwide."

White Mountains
