Day tripper ideas and suggestions

[Morgen Thiboult]

I'm looking for some ideas on fun and unique places to visit in New Hampshire. Anyone have any suggestions up north, by the seacoast or in the western parts of the state? Any little towns that I have to visit or any hidden secrets that I should uncover? And where should I eat in these towns?

[Janice Brown]

Morgen,

Suggestion of unique place to visit: Tamworth NH
Hidden Secrets: You can learn how to make cheese
What Should You Eat? Cheese, of course. If you don't like cheese, try the Tamworth Inn http://www.tamworth.com/ OR for more casual Sammy's Restaurant http://samanthasinn.com/restaurant.htm

Other Comments: This seems like a great early Mother's Day event for the entire family. I can hear your mother now bragging about how her kids gave her the gift of cheese-making :D

Well, if you haven't already done so, hike Rattlesnake Trail near Squam Lake. We just did so for the first time last fall. The hike was described to us as the easiest work for the biggest payoff (a beautiful panoramic view of lakes at the end of the hike).

Morgen,

Let's go shopping, I would like to suggest Tilton's outlets, Exit 20 off of RT. 93.

Unique, Sugar Hill Village, the Lupine Festival will be coming up shortly. I also enjoy visiting bogs, wildlife perserves looking MOOSE, birds. I have yet found a moose, sigh anyone out there can help me to find moose write me!!! Another hobby is getting in the car and taking back roads looking for beautiful sites and wildlife. You never know what you will find.

Topping off our exploration, having dinner at Rossi, Rt. 104, New Hampton, NH

In Franconia Notch there is the tram to the top of Cannon Mountain. It's a beautiful ride up, and there's a hiking trail that rings the peak with incredible views down through the notch, over into Vermont and up into Canada.
