Overview
Bretton Woods is a renowned resort area located in the heart of the White Mountains of New Hampshire, celebrated globally for its natural beauty and its significant role in world financial history (hosting the 1944 United Nations Monetary and Financial Conference). Situated at the base of Mount Washington, the highest peak in the Northeastern United States, the area offers immediate access to rugged wilderness, stunning alpine views, and year-round outdoor adventure.
The centerpiece of the region is the iconic Omni Mount Washington Hotel, a grand, historic hotel known for its stunning Spanish Renaissance architecture and panoramic views of the Presidential Range. The area caters to visitors looking for both relaxation and active recreation, providing excellent opportunities for hiking, skiing, and scenic drives. Bretton Woods is a perfect destination for those wanting to explore the expansive, majestic landscape of the northern Appalachian Mountains.
Take a historic and thrilling ride up the western slope of Mount Washington on the world’s first mountain-climbing railway. The Cog Railway offers incredible views and a unique mechanical experience.
Tip: Book your tickets well in advance, as this popular excursion often sells out, especially during summer and fall.
Walk the majestic grounds and interior of this historic resort, which hosted the famous 1944 Bretton Woods Conference. The architecture and history are fascinating.
Tip: Consider booking a guided tour of the hotel to learn about its rich history and the famous people who have visited.
Drive through or stop for a hike in this spectacular mountain pass. The park offers numerous trails, waterfalls (like the Silver Cascade), and deep ravines carved by glaciers.
Tip: Be prepared for changing weather conditions, even on short hikes, and check trail difficulty ratings before setting out.
Ride the gondola up the slopes of Bretton Woods Ski Resort during the warmer months for breathtaking views of Mount Washington and the surrounding White Mountain National Forest.
Tip: The observation deck at the top provides a perfect photo opportunity of the entire Presidential Range.
If you're feeling adventurous and the weather is good, drive your own vehicle (or take a guided van tour) up the winding 7.6-mile road to the summit of Mount Washington.
Tip: The summit is known for having some of the most extreme weather in the world; always obey all safety warnings and speed limits.
Depending on the season, enjoy either downhill skiing, snowboarding, or snowshoeing (winter), or mountain biking and disc golf (summer) on the area's vast slopes and trails.
Tip: If visiting in the winter, purchase your lift tickets early to take advantage of multi-day or early-bird discounts.
