A couple of years ago my husband and I decided to explore the woodlands of New Hampshire by snowmobile. Although we don't own a snowmobile and we rarely ride, we went to Alpine Adventures in Lincoln NH to go on a guided snowmobile tour. It was fantastic! If you don't have "winter attire" for just $5 they will rent you insulated snowmobile suite. They do provide you with helmets.
My personal recommendations include:
- Even if you are new and/or scared, ride your own snowmobile. I doubled up with my husband and found it was more work and harder to hold on to him, than it would have been to handle my own machine.
- Stay overnight. You'll never want to leave! So plan ahead and rent a room. Get one with a whirlpool tub, jacuzzi, and/or hot tub, so you can soak your tired bones at the end of a long ride.
- Pick a restaurant and plan dinner ahead of time. That way you can enjoy your trip without having to make any last minute decisions! We like the Woodstock Inn & Brewery. Great lodging, wonderful food and deliciously brewed beer (try Pig's Ear)!
For your planning purposes NH has a wonderful state tourism website to help. www.visitnh.gov. ENJOY your trip and remember... If you have any questions, Granite State Ambassadors are your "New Hampshire Information Specialists" ask us and we will find you answers! @askNH.
