This Underrated Township Just Might Be The Most Beautiful Place In New Hampshire
New Hampshire is full of beautiful small towns, but Dixville Notch is smaller – and more beautiful – than most.

In 2010, the population of Dixville Notch was a mere 12 people. Although many more people come through the community as tourists, it isn't one of New Hampshire's most well-known communities. However, it is well worth a trip.

One reason Dixville Notch sometimes goes unnoticed is because it's so far north. The drive will take you about 2 hours and 40 minutes from Concord, and about 3.5 hours from southern New Hampshire. However, the remote location is part of what makes Dixville Notch so charming.

Lake Glorietta is picturesque, surrounded by striking mountains. The shores of the lake are also home to the majestic Balsams resort. Although the resort is not currently open, there are plans to reopen. For now, the hotel provides an enchanted-looking prop in the New Hampshire wilderness.

However, the real gem in Dixville Notch is the state park.

The park is full of waterfalls and streams, and full of hiking and walking opportunities.

One of the most popular attractions in the park is Table Rock. The ledge hangs more than 2,500 feet over the ravine below.

Although the view from the top is gorgeous, the hike up and down is also strikingly beautiful.

Of course, another advantage of Dixville Notch is that the wildlife is first rate.

Of course, Dixville Notch is just as beautiful during the winter.

lt's no wonder that Dixville Notch has become a much-loved vacation destination for those who have visited.
