Curator’s statement

The White Mountains are crisscrossed by an extensive network of trails, each one more inviting than the last. The Appalachian Trail weaves through the region, offering hikers the chance to traverse lush woodlands, cross sparkling streams and marvel at cascading waterfalls like the famed Flume Gorge and Arethusa Falls. Winter brings heaps of snow, making this a go-to for the skiers/snowboarders.
