Welcome to your ultimate day trip guide for exploring the charming, hidden gems of New Hampshire! As a native of the state, I've spent years exploring winding country backroads and discovering small, picturesque towns with incredible charm. I traveled within NH during my empty nest phase as it was within my budget, and NH has so much to offer. In this pocket guide, I'm sharing my insider tips and favorite destinations, so you too can experience the magic of the "Live Free or Die" state. I included places where the locals go for food and entertainment. From breakfast hotspots to speakeasy bars, live music, museums, outdoor activities, and more, this itinerary covers a range of unique and exciting things to discover in each of the four quadrants of the state. Starting in Southern NH and venturing through the Seacoast, Central NH, the Lakes Region, and finally, the White Mountains in the north, each destination is within close proximity to another, ensuring you don't waste time driving and instead, fully soak up the sights, sounds, and flavors of New England. Riding on a motorcycle is a great way to smell nature, the lilacs, the salty ocean air, the marshes, and of course the food. Whether you have just a day to spare or want to spend a weekend exploring the area, this guide offers plenty of suggestions to keep you busy. And for those who want to venture beyond the suggested itinerary, there's a list of additional tourist places to venture off and discover. As someone who loves delicious food, welcoming atmospheres, and the stunning natural beauty of New Hampshire, I hope that you'll enjoy the sensory experience of each of these suggested places. Get ready for a day trip that'll have you falling in love with NH naturally!
