4 Star Places To Visit in New Hampshire, United States (50)

1. 4.5 Kancamagus Highway (3.551 reviews)
   - Just DO it!
   Spent More than 3 hours Scenic Drives

2. 4.5 Flume Gorge (1.737 reviews)
   - Expensive to get in but still worth the hike
   Saturday: 9:00 AM - 4:00 PM Historic Walking Areas • Geologic Formations • Waterfalls
   
   
   This 800-foot-long gorge with towering granite walls is at the base of Mount Liberty. You can explore the gorge on a short two-mile hike—it has a lot of uphill sections and stairs, so wear a good pair of shoes. While you're there, check out the Flume Covered Bridge (across the scenic Pemigewasset River) and Table Rock (an open granite rock face), too. Visit during fall for beautiful orange hues, or during summer and early spring for stronger water flows. The narrow gorge can get busy, so get there early in the day for fewer crowds. Reservations are required—book online in advance to secure your slot. – Tripadvisor See more..
   
3. 4.5 Diana's Baths (1.571 reviews)
   - Crowded, but beautiful
   Waterfalls
   
   
   We hiked at Diana's Baths on a Tuesday morning. It's got a beautiful series of waterfalls, and it is near North Conway, and that leads to crowds. It's certainly not a quiet nature experience! It is very popular with families with small children, and dog owners. The trail is well maintained and is pretty easy hiking up to where the falls begin. The National Forest fee for parking is $4 per car, and that gets you into any other WMNF lot the rest of the day--we found that quite reasonable. But parking can also be crowded. As we were leaving, the lot was completely full, and someone was waiting behind us to take our spot. I suggest going early! See more..
   
4. 4.5 Hampton Beach State Park (1.380 reviews)
   - Winter Beach Day!!
   Beaches
   
   
   As a family we love the beach. This beach we personally like coming to in the off season in the late spring and early fall or on an unseasonably warm February day, as we did for this trip. There aren’t as many people around and you can really enjoy your time without a lot of people around. In the summer it can get pretty crowded and although we enjoy it in the summer as well. We prefer the quiet of the off season! See more..

16. 4.5 Currier Museum of Art (635 reviews)
    - Fine museum experience and the Frank Lloyd Wright house tour was great!
    Saturday: 10:00 AM - 5:00 PM Art Museums
    
    
    Small museum but interesting art collection. Great for a couple of hours of fine art viewing. But what is truly exceptional is the tour of two Frank Lloyd Wright houses in Manchester NH. The Zimmerman House is truly special. And the Kalal House is at the very least a fascinating example of a modular design specifically developed for middle class FLW clients. Having these two houses connected to the museum makes it truly worth the trip. Must have reservations to go on the house tour as they only take up to 10 people at a time. See more..

18. 4.5 Pemi Valley Moose Tours (574 reviews)
    - Exactly what we wanted for viewing moose/wildlife
    Nature & Wildlife Tours
    
    
    This was a fantastic moose tour. 1st off, they are legally authorized to use spot lights. There was no texting while driving and they are extremely professional in the driving and hunting of moose. They care greatly for their customers and showed caution not only for passengers, but also passing vehicles. We saw 6 moose on the tour. The price was affordable and cheaper than other tours we looked into. Both men were nice, knowledgeable and quite funny. They told history of places we passed as well and some hilarious jokes! The were very accommodating for children. The gave out prizes and made us all comfortable. They also make bathroom stops along the way. I highly recommend Pemi. In fact, we are bringing our 5 kids next time! We can't wait!! See more..

21. 4.5 Merrimack Premium Oulets (532 reviews)
    - Few Shoppers and Empty Stores BUT...
    Saturday: 10:00 AM - 9:00 PM Speciality & Gift Shops • Factory Outlets • Shopping Malls
    
    
    ...the sales staff at all the stores were happy to see anyone! This was our 2nd visit to Merrimack Premium Outlets and it was done after a disappointing visit to Kittery, Maine...Maine was not the let down, it was all about Covid, that has forced reaclosures of some outlet stores, which has created a "ghost town" feel and gloom for the area, even in the midst of Autumn and turning colors. After an hour driving through Kittery's strip mall outlets, we decided to drive the 1 1/2 to New Hampshire's Merrimack. While the Merrimack Outlets are experiencing the same drop off in business and tourism, as the shipper, your "energy" is different in a self contained complex,. My wife and I were glad to have made "the trek" as we found some good purchases for upcoming birthdays and the holidays...New Hampshire has no sales tax on clothing purchases. Our only problem, needing a new piece of luggage, fortunately, there were more than enough options right there at Merrimack! See more..
    
22. 4.5 The M/S Mount Washington (530 reviews)
    - Relaxing lake tour
    Saturday: 9:00 AM - 7:00 PM Boat Tours
    
    
    We spend a relaxing few hours aboard this ship after boarding in Weirs Beach. It was a wonderful way to explore Lake Winnipesaukee and learn the history of the area. The lake is huge (largest in New Hampshire) with islands in it that people live on. We had a couple of mimosas that were pretty good. The crew did a great job of announcing what we were seeing as we sailed along the lake. It does get pretty chilly as you tour the lake so bring a jacket to fully enjoy the gorgeous views both along the coast line of the lake and the islands in the lake. There is plenty of seating both inside and outside the ship. See more..
    
23. 4.5 Whale's Tale Waterpark (498 reviews)
    - Fantastic
    Saturday: 10:00 AM - 5:00 PM Water Parks
    
    
    Staff was incredibly polite, courteous, and helpful. The park was impeccable and well kept, lifeguards appeared tentative and alert and professional. When we arrived at 10:20 am on 8/19 we were a bit shocked to see the long line for bag check/park check in but we only waited in line about 15 minutes as staff was able to quickly but thoroughly check bags. The park is small and navigable enough to easily ride every attraction more than once but spread out sufficiently to not feel crowded. This was my family’s first visit but it won’t be our last. We had a blast! See more..

25. 4.5 Cannon Mountain Aerial Tramway (424 reviews)
    - A great way to spend a few hours
    Saturday: 8:00 AM - 4:00 PM Trams
    
    
    Beautiful day last Sunday so up the tram we decided to go! They tell you online how many tickets are left on each trip (limited to 40), so we saw lots of availability and didn't buy in advance (but you can) and got there 2 minutes before a trip. Bought our tickets and jumped onboard for a beautiful 7 minute ride to the summit. There's an easy trail there to the lookout tower and then around back to the restaurant and summit shop that we took, we also took some side trails to more private ledges with incredible views. Great trip for the money on a sunny and clear day! See more..

    - Brewmaster tour
    Saturday: 10:00 AM - 4:00 PM Breweries
    
    
    We did the brewmaster tour- about 2 hours. Was a great inside look inside this huge production facility. Our tour consisted of a free hat, beer, a few samples of beer right from the tanks and and beer glass I would not take small children on this tour, just because of minimal bathroom availability and length of time. Would definitely recommend! See more..
    
28. 4.5 Cannon Mountain (422 reviews)
    - One of the best we’ve been to in NH
    Saturday: 8:00 AM - 4:00 PM Mountains • Ski & Snowboard Areas
    
    
    Cannon has something for everyone. The Tuckerbrook family area is great for beginners and the 2100 foot vertical is good for those more experienced. Cannon is best resort so far you get access to on the Indy Pass. I would go January through March as going in December left several runs closed and quite icy. That being said, it’s a lovely area with good runs. Rentals are like 50.00 though. Get the Indy pass and enjoy 2 days here. See more..

38. 4.0 Bank of New Hampshire Pavilion (303 reviews)
    - Unique Concert Venue
    Saturday: Theaters
    
    
    This was a unique indoor/outdoor venue to see a concert. We went to see Ringo Starr with the opening act of the Avett Brothers. The line to get in was not bad, but we walked over from the Patrick's parking lot. The parking seemed to be a bit of an issue for a lot of people. Once in, the venue is covered by a large canopy, which would be nice in case of inclement weather. Though the venue is right on the lake, there's no views of the water and all you can really see are trees. The beverages were overpriced, but that's typical for any concert venue. The concert itself was outstanding, especially Ringo Starr and his All Star Band. This was a solid place to take in a show, but it was not on the same level as Red Rocks in Colorado for an outdoor concert. See more..
    
39. 4.0 Charmingfare Farm (303 reviews)
    - Animals can be fun.
    Farms
    
    
    Lower your expectations. The first turn off is that tickets can only be bought on line and it seems it is because when you purchase there is a processing fee: $4.75. That is outrageous for an all ready high ticket price of $22.00 per person regardless of age. The one person we saw at entrance/gift shop was friendly. There is no map or guiding sketch. She did share a list of animals to check for which turned out all were not visible. During our time we searched for pigs… not open due to new babies. We learned that as we exited because we asked. For sure there is a better way to convey any changes or adjustments for the day. The wildlife is a nice feature but quite a few cages were empty with no signs or explanations. Majority were hard to see. This place has potential to be a top experience, but currently is not worth the entrance fee, especially with the added fee. Also did not find the website clear on hours and days open. See more..

41. 4.0 Casino Ballroom (297 reviews)
    - Great venue for a show
    Saturday: 10:00 AM - 4:00 PM Points of Interest & Landmarks • Theaters • Game & Entertainment Centers
    
    
    As locals, we love to see shows at the casino. It is convenient to park, there is not a bad seat in the house, and drinks are reasonably priced. We try to see two or three shows a year as they will typically have repeat shows that we like. General admission option is fun to for a good dance show. Love it. See more..
