Eat & Run, Lakes Region Style

Some of our friends in the media have offered some great thoughts on local hikes and farmstand...

WMUR-TV recently posted the results of an online poll of the top 15 farmstand in the state - which are usually also great places to do some autumn apple-picking.
Naturally, the Lakes Region is well represented...

No. 15: Smith Farm, Belmont

No. 9: Hackleboro Orchard,Canterbury

No. 15: Surowiec Farm, Sanbornton

And this is from the current New Hampshire magazine issue:
10 Great Hikes to Enjoy Fall Foliage.

"Waterworks"
Mount Major, Alton Bay
Length: 1.4 miles one way
Elevation gain: 1, 159 feet
Time: 2 hours
Highlight: View of Lake Winnipesaukee

The Lakes Region may not be the first place that comes to mind when planning a hike to peek at the peak foliage but Mount Major offers more bang for the sightseeing buck than almost any other short hike we can think of. It is a small hill with a big-time view overlooking the state's largest lake. The trailhead is on the west side of Rte. 11 in Alton Bay. It's about 3.4 miles out and back with a rise of 1,159 feet to the 1,784-foot summit of the hill. It just takes about two to three hours, depending on your pace. This is a popular hike for summer campers and you can be overwhelmed by little ones during the warmer weather, but it's much less crowded in the fall. It's a dog-friendly hike to the rock dome with a gorgeous view of the hills around Mount Belknap reflected in the waters of Alton Bay and Lake Winnipesaukee.
