The Christmas season is here, and New Hampshire has come alive with all the fun things to do in celebration. While life tends to get busy this time of year, we think it’s important to make time for special family-friendly events. So, between the shopping trips, meal-planning and travel preparations, be sure to plan a visit to Journey to the North Pole in New Hampshire, located in North Conway and Lincoln. This combination of train rides and live performances is truly unforgettable. Even better, it benefits the literacy programs of The Believe in Books Literacy Foundation – a great cause. This might just be the best way to celebrate Christmas traditions in New Hampshire – and the 2023 train is loading soon!
