Welcome to Winter!
Snowmobiling
North of the Notches is a snowmobile paradise with trails groomed in the Northern White Mountains and Great North Woods by the New Hampshire Snowmobile Association. NHSA is an association of independently incorporated snowmobile clubs, working together as a unified voice to speak for the sport of snowmobiling and to promote it as safe family recreation. The clubs groom the trail corridor network in NH and connect with lodging facilities.

In addition to outdoor sports, you can pick your own Christmas tree at The Rocks Tree Farm in Bethlehem and go for a horsedrawn wagon ride. In Bretton Woods you can go for a sleigh ride or canopy tour. Many of the ski centers have fat biking and tubing. Cannon Mountain has a tram that takes you up above spectacular Franconia Notch! These are only a few of ths family friendly things to do north of the notches in NH.
