Things get a little quiet here in New Hampshire during the spring, making it the perfect season for a serene couples getaway or a family vacation. There’s still plenty to do as the snow melts.

Here are our top ten must-do springtime activities in and around the mountains of New Hampshire.  Think of RiverWalk Resort at Loon Mountain like your "basecamp" for the week.  Then, head out and enjoy these amazing attractions, sights, and activities.  Have fun!

1. Solstice North Day Spa
   Relax and unwind with a professional spa treatment at Solstice North Day Spa. Located onsite, our full-service spa offers a wide array of massage, skin care, nail care, and waxing services. 
2. Seven Birches Winery
   This full-production, commercial winery is located onsite at RiverWalk Resort. The wine is made with the highest quality grapes from around the world, as well as local New Hampshire fruit. Come and give our wine a try in the tasting room, which is open daily in the afternoon and evenings.
3. Woodstock Inn Brewery
   Take a tour through this local craft beer brewery and brew pub. You’ll learn about the history of the Woodstock Inn Brewery and the basics of craft beer making before having the chance to taste sample a few of their best brews.
4. Ziplining
   Soar through the trees on one of three different zipline tours offered by Alpine Adventures. The Treetop Canopy Tour is great for families and anyone trying out a zipline for the first time.
5. Tram Ride
   Ride to the 4,080-foot summit of Cannon Mountain via the tram. On a clear day, you can see the stunning scenery of New Hampshire, Vermont, Maine, New York, and Canada. Check the website for availability.
6. Fire Tower
   Climbing On some of the highest peaks in New Hampshire, you can climb even higher than the summit – if there’s a fire tower. From the Loon Mountain Fire Tower, you can see the all of the White Mountains from this perch.
7. Fishing
   When the lake waters thaw, hungry fish in the rivers, lakes, and streams of New Hampshire start biting. Trout thrive in the cold water of the White Mountains region.
8. Mountain Biking
   The White Mountain National Forest offers mountain biking and is open year round. All trails and roads in the forest are open to mountain biking, except for the Appalachian Trail and designated wilderness areas.
9. Hiking
   Hiking in the White Mountains in the spring can be a little muddy, a little snowy, or a bit of both. But the scenery is beautiful and spring air is invigorating. Be sure to bring an extra sweater or jacket since the weather can be unpredictable.
10. See the Waterfalls
    The many waterfalls of the region are at their most impressive during the spring thanks to the snow melt. The Flume and Silver Cascades and Rocky Gorge and Lower Falls are fantastic and can be viewed without having to hike up off the road.
