BIKING
There's a beautiful side to New Hampshire that cyclists and mountain bikers know. New Hampshire's many scenic country roads make for ideal touring; you can even pack up and ride from campground to campground or inn to inn. Off-road cycling enthusiasts have hundreds of options. Many ski areas welcome mountain bikers in warmer weather, and lift-served biking is the order of the day.
There are miles of trails in the White Mountain National Forest and through New Hampshire State Parks and State Forests. State Parks known especially for their mountain biking include Bear Brook, Pawtuckaway and Pisgah.
New Hampshire Bike/Ped and the New Hampshire Trail Bureau both have biking information online, including regional maps, biking/ped links and bike safety information.
