When we visited in October, 64 ft high Glen Ellis Falls was quite impressive with a great amount of water flow. The Falls are reached by just a very short walk (0.3-mile) from the parking lot. There is a pit toilet available near the parking area. You start the walk by going through a tunnel which goes under NH Route 16. Over 100 stone steps will lead you down to the base of the falls for the best viewing of the entire falls. When we visited, these stone steps were still wet from a rain the night before, so we had to use extra caution. The round trip walk took us 20 minutes. The location and description of the walk to this Falls was listed in the book, “AMC's Best Day Hikes in the White Mountain's” which we purchased prior to our trip. The book mentions that this is a very popular walk, so we are glad that we visited early in the morning. At that time of day it was not crowded at all. We were told by the White Mountains Visitor Center to display our Senior National Park Pass so that it could be seen through our car window. Otherwise, in the parking lots, there is usually a box for a fee for day use of White Mountains National Forest areas.

Great moderate-difficulty hike with an awesome view at the top. The trail was easy to follow but has a decent elevation change. Wear hiking boots. Pack a lunch and eat at the top while enjoying the views. Park in the upper lot at the Gorge exit and follow the bike path/trail under the highway.

NH's State House - with the oldest continuously used legislative chambers! Opened in June 1819! Home of the General Court of NH!

Full of nooks and crannies, this very old building exudes Yankee thrift and durability. Set amid the town, and not walled off from the flow of life, the capitol building screams New Hampshire. Live free or die!

This 20-foot-wide natural granite abyss is probably one of the largest "potholes" you've ever seen.

Dos and dont’s - DO expect a beautiful, serene, calm trail that is well marked, and an overall easy walk. Paved in some parts. Great for kids, families, and those that love beautiful water, waterholes and picturesque views. DONT expect a difficult hike or climb up the side of a mountain. DO expect plenty of ‘gram moments. The scenery is gorgeous and plenty of picnic and chill out spots. We spent a couple hours meandering there and it was wonderful!

The campus is beautiful with a great deal of history. The shops and restaurants around the campus is great. The unique bridge from NH to VT is very unique. Being there during the fall is beautiful.

Great view of the waterfall and so peaceful to listen to the rushing water. A bench at near the top is so relaxing. Nature at it's best.

This city park in Manchester, New Hampshire is a popular place. It has athletic facilities, a swimming pool, a playground which is shaded, and a 1 mile walking trail around Dorrs Pond. There is plenty of parking, Bring the family and a picnic lunch, as there is plenty of space to gather.

I was able to get a day off from work. I went to the lake for a nice stroll the paths are great with many people walking, running, or riding bikes. There are piers to sit at and beach’s to hang at.
