Lakes Region Tour

What better way to explore New Hampshires largest lake than by this 97-mile drive? Circling the perimeter of Lake Winnipesaukee, this route allows you to enjoy the breathtaking scenery while also making several stops at towns, state parks, and historic sites along the way. The southwestern side near Alton Bay and Glendale provides stunning views of the lake and of the Ossipee Mountains. You can also stop at Weirs Beach or Ellacoya State Park for some swimming or boating. The eastern side of the lake is less developed, although there is still plenty to see, including the historic Wentworth Estate and the Dartmouth College campus.
