New Hampshire

White Mountains

The White Mountains, mostly in northern New Hampshire, are an emblematic New England mountain range. Known for their spectacular landscapes, their dense forests and Mount Washington — one of the highest summits in the northeastern United States — they draw hikers, skiers and nature lovers all year long.

Flume gorge

The Flume Gorge is a spectacular natural gorge in Franconia Notch State Park, in the heart of the White Mountains in New Hampshire. Carved by water over millennia, it is marked by high granite walls, waterfalls and wooden boardwalks that make for an impressive encounter with nature.

Valued for its quiet, wooded natural setting, it makes an ideal starting point for hiking, notably toward Mount Hancock and the surrounding trails. The site offers a simple, authentic experience, perfect for lovers of the outdoors and of nature. Be warned, you need to bring paper money: the site does not take cards and there is no way to reserve. First come, first served.

Kancamagus Highway

The Kancamagus Highway is an emblematic New Hampshire scenic road that crosses the White Mountains over roughly 55 km. Renowned for its spectacular landscapes, it offers viewpoints, waterfalls and hiking areas, and is particularly prized in the fall for its blazing colours.

Canterbury Shaker Village — for history buffs

Canterbury Shaker Village, in New Hampshire, is an emblematic site of American heritage. It retraces the life of the Shakers, a religious community of the 18th and 19th centuries known for its simple way of life, its careful craftsmanship and its values of sharing. The preserved buildings, the period objects and the gardens offer an authentic immersion in the history and daily life of this singular community.
