Summer Things To Do In The Mt. Washington Valley
Summer in North Conway and the surrounding area of the Mt. Washington Valley are all about enjoying the natural beauty of the White Mountains and fun. Nourish your sense of adventure with a day of tubing down the Saco river, hike one of our many peaks, or take the family to Storyland for the day.
Story Land
Story Land is the best children's theme park in New Hampshire, offering rides and entertainment to thousands of families with young children for over 65 years. The park is meant to appeal to children up to the pre-teen ages and features rides such as the Bamboo Shoots, Roar-a-Saurus, and Dr. Geyser’s Wild Ride.
Tubing The Saco
Spend a day meandering down the Saco River, enjoying its sandy beaches and crystal-clear water. Tubing and paddling on the river are popular summer activities in the area with multiple routes and trip lengths to choose from. Need gear? Saco Bound will have everything you need!
Golf
With over 100 holes of golf to play in the Mt. Washington Valley, each course offers a completely different experience including nine-hole games to 18-holes that will take you from courses set at historic grand hotels to others that cross historic covered bridges and vintage train tracks. We love Bretton Woods, The Eagle Mountain House, Hales Location, and the North Conway Country Club - but there are so many to choose from!
