Review & Frequenly Asked Questions:
Best known as the home of Dartmouth College, a class="ref1" href="https://explorehanovernh.com">Hanover is a small but inviting city located on the banks of the Connecticut River. It's worth visiting the Dartmouth campus to relax on the beautiful green, and if you like museums, three of the town's best are the Montshire Museum of Science, the Enfield Shaker Museum, and the Hood Museum of Art. Visitors can also hike along the portion of the Appalachian Trail that runs through town, and in the winter, you can downhill ski on Whaleback Mountain or cross-country ski at the Dartmouth Cross Country Ski Center.
