Jackson Overview

By Travel Expert: Candyce H. Stapen

Jackson and the Mount Washington region—comprising North Conway, Bartlett, and Waterville Valley—in the heart of New Hampshire's White Mountains, offer a splendid array of family activities. In winter, the skiers and snowboarders hit the slopes of Waterville Valley, Attitash Bear Peak, and Wildcat, while cross-country skiers glide along Jackson's trails. In fall, the woods fill with brilliant reds, oranges, and yellows, and in summer, paths take you through forests and to clear streams for fishing.
