These Are 12 of the Most Beautiful Things in New Hampshire, Say Locals

We sure are lucky to call New Hampshire home. There's no shortage of things to do here year-round, as well as in our neighboring states of Maine, Massachusetts, and Vermont.

Are you an avid hiker, skier, or general outdoorsman (or woman)? You can pay a visit to the White Mountains. Do you like history, or perhaps strolling through those charming, quintessential New England towns? This writer recommends going to Portsmouth and experiencing all that the small coastal city has to offer. Then there's the beach. Whether you're hoping to sun, surf, or stroll down the boardwalk, we've got it all.

Besides our close proximity to all sorts of fun activities, we're also fortunate to be surrounded by a beautiful natural backdrop every day. New Hampshire's scenery is lovely year-round. When nature's in full bloom during the warmer months, we appreciate it all the more, considering our long winters. Our falls are truly something spectacular, bringing in leaf-peepers from all over to see our fabulous foliage. And then there are the winters, which, love 'em or hate 'em, can lead to some pretty views in their own right, too.

But what are some of the most beautiful things in the Granite State, be it regions, scenic spots, or different landmarks and destinations? We asked the locals what they thought, and couldn't agree more with the responses. So, let's have a look at 12 of the most beautiful things in New Hampshire.
