We did our best to create many categories of ways to play in NH, but not every activity fits neatly into a box.  If you are not sure where to start when planning a trip or just going for a drive in NH or just want some general information sites to visit, here are some links that you may find helpful.  They have lots of great information about where to go, how to get there, and what to do once you are there.
