The White Mountains Region is the most mountainous area of the state. It is a must-see for tourists, climbers, hikers and skiers.
The wide range of lodgings and restaurants and the warm hospitality has ensured the White Mountains position as one of the most popular year-round destinations in the East. Attractions include family theme parks and water parks, scenic mountain rides, and historic sites. The White Mountain National Forest is a mecca for hikers, bikers and nature lovers, and Mt. Washington, rising 6,288 feet above sea level, offers some of the best skiing in the eastern United States.
In the last twenty years, tax-free shopping has become an increasingly important draw, thanks to the region's many unique boutiques, name-brand outlets, antiques, crafts and other stores. |
