what a ride S N O W M O B I L E C A P I TA L O F N E W E N G L A N D The Great North Woods, New Hampshire’s North Country is one of the best snowmobile destinations in New England. Year after year, thousands of visitors flock to the region to ride pristine groomed trails with incredible wildlife and mountain views. With over 700 miles of trails and an extensive lodging network, it’s hard to argue its status. All the trails are groomed by the local snowmobile clubs and connect to trails in Vermont, Maine, and Quebec. Since Pittsburg is the most northern town in New Hampshire bordering Canada, you can bring your passport and cross over to Chartierville for lunch. Take a selfie at the border and brag to all your friends that you snowmobiled to and from Canada in a day. CHECK OUT THOSE VIEWS Diamond Ridge in Pittsburg offers incredible views of the wooded forest below. Standing at 3,230 feet, you can ride perfectly groomed, wide trails to the summit of the mountain. On bluebird days, you can see for miles and the trails are often studded with wildlife. Dixville Notch is a steep and challenging ride to an amazing view just below the windmills. Be sure to pack some snacks for the Canadian Grey Jays that will happily eat out of your hands. •  Tri-State Reciprocal Snowmobile Weekend Ride Maine, New Hampshire, and Vermont with one registration Sugar Hill in Stewartstown offers great views of the North Country’s wilderness.
