Winter Vacation Spot

by Mable
(New Hampshire)

For a winter vacation idea, come to New Hampshire in February! Here is a winter wonderland at its picturesque best! Flights are readily available into Manchester, or come ahead by car. The White Mountains, particularly the Presidential Range, are absolutely beautiful and skiing from novice to black diamond is available in many locations. (New Hampshire is the home of Olympic skier Bode Miller.)

Cross country trails, snow shoeing, and ski mobiling are also widely available. Numerous Bread and Breakfast Inns as well as hotels are scattered throughout the state. Shopping is a favorite for many visitors as there is no sales tax at both unique stores and outlets for many major manufacturers. Local events include the Ice Fishing Derby on Lake Winnipesaukee. Hardy souls may also enjoy New Hampshire’s ocean beachfront for a winter stroll, though many of the shops and restaurants there will be closed.
