We left midmorning, so we didn't stop at the first ice cream place...just headed straight for the Mt. Chocorua view. I printed some letterboxes beforehand and was excited to find a letterbox at the same place (Mt. Chocorua View). Got some great foliage pictures as well as family & kid pictures here too!
After that, we went and got some pics of the mountain over the pond. So pretty!
We continued on the drive until we came to Great Hill Road and then stopped to do another letterbox (Great Hill Tower). This hike is a must do! I'd say it's probably about a half mile into the woods. Once you reach the tower, you can climb up and look at all the mountains and foliage around you. Totally worth it!
Once you start the drive again and get on Cleveland Hill Road, stop to check out Ordinance Rock on the right. There's yet another letterbox (Ordinance Rock Cemetery) right across the street. The kids loved looking at all the very old gravestones in the cemetery.
Hollow Hill Farm is right beside the cemetery and we did some apple picking there on another day (because it was raining on our first trip by). The owners are very nice people!
We saw the coolest rainbow on the way to the next stop...just beautiful!
One of the best stops on the trip was at the Sandwich Creamery. It's way in the middle of nowhere. They sell homemade ice cream and cheese there. It's all done on the honor system by sticking your money through a little slot to pay for what you're buying. And the the ice cream is delicious! The kids liked seeing all the animals there too.
After our ice cream, we just headed back to our campground although the trip continues a little longer. We highly recommend doing this road trip if you're going to be in the area....and I'd try to go during the fall to see all the amazing colors!
Here's a few Halloween & Fall Events I've found going on in October! Bookmark this post because I'll keep updating it as I find more!
Sauchuk Farm is doing their corn maze once again just off Center Street in Plympton. This years maze features 3 jack o lanterns and looks pretty cool! It's bigger than last years maze and they say there will be more family fun activities as well such as: hayrides, face painting, a cow train ride, corn box and a pumpkin patch. Last year they had food for purchase as well! The kids loved doing the maze last year and we'll definitely go back this year! 
The maze is open for business on Saturday, September 13. You can visit the maze on weekends from 10-5 through October 26. Admission is $13 for 13+, $6 for ages 4-12 and 3 and under is free. You can even print a coupon from their website here.
Parents looking for fun stuff to do with the kids!
