Before the winter creeps in and inhibits hibernation, take advantage of the outdoor adventures around New Hampshire. Here are 5 fall-friendly outdoor adventures.
Hike Mount Monadnock
Hiking is always a good suggestion in cooler weather, but fall is the perfect time to hike Mount Monadnock in Jaffrey. Being this is considered one of the most climbed peaks in the world, beat the crowds by seeing its panoramic views on a cool, fall day.
Hop on a bike
Tour New Hampshire's scenic country roads or go off-road for even more adventure. Check out White Mountain National Forest or New Hampshire State Parks for trail information.
Tour the trees while zip lining
The Bretton Woods Canopy Tour takes customers across several tree-top zip lines and high-flying suspension bridges. It's open year-round, but fall offers the most colorful tour.
See New Hampshire's wildlife on a Safari Tour
At Alpine Adventures in Lincoln, go up and over Barron Mountain in a Pinzgauer off-road jeep. Catch some moose, deer and turkeys along the trail, while checking out the fall folliage.
Go hang gliding or paragliding
With the beautiful fall foliage, this is a great time of year to get up in the skies. At Morningside Flight Park in Charlestown, you can take introductory lessons in hang gliding or paragliding, a newer form of hang gliding using a steerable parachute.
