New Hampshire’s White Mountains in the Summer
Visiting White Mountains, which cover a sizable chunk of the state of New Hampshire, has long been on my bucket list. It is one of the prime destinations for “leaf peepers” in the fall, boasting a superb foliage scenery. However, my husband and I jumped on this trip opportunity in the summer, with both of our kids away in overnight camp. We focused our trip on the area between the towns of Lincoln, North Conway and Bretton Woods, rich in outdoor attractions.

Here is the recap of our visits to 7 kosher restaurants in the area.
