Ice Skating

When the cold weather starts rolling into the Hudson area, you might be tempted to curl up under a heavy blanket all winter long – but nothing gets families out the door like a day of ice skating in New Hampshire. If you want to work on your skills, check out Conway Arena in Nashua for everything from hockey lessons to figure skating freestyle to seasonal skating events.

Granite Gorge, located in the Roxbury and Keene area, offers a wide range of activities: cross country skiing, snowshoeing, snow tubing, and more. Plus, special learning areas and youth programs provide learning opportunities for all ages and skill levels. Further up in North Conway, Cranmore Mountain Resort offers skiing and tubing, but also races and competitions for more advanced athletes.
