Wolfeboro is home to the Abenaki Ski Area, featured as a Most Impor-tant Ski Area in the October 2014 issue of Powder Magazine. Abenaki offers trails from green to black dia-mond and sits adjacent to the indoor Pop Whalen Ice Arena. Both are open to the public.
Just a few of the activities of-fered by the Wolfeboro Department of Parks & Recreation include a unique Progressive XC Ski Dinner, the Abenaki Winter Triathlon, and a Winter Quilter’s Retreat. Find out more by visiting the Department’s page on wolfeboronh.us or call (603) 569-5639.
Wolfeboro also offers XC skiing; Wolfeboro XC maintains 30 kms of groomed cross-country ski trails, and was selected by N.H. Magazine and
its readers as Best Cross-Country Ski Deal: leading the pack with commu-nity-run, family friendly, affordable and beautiful XC Skiing.
Sportsmen will enjoy ice fishing on the area’s lakes; compete in a fish-ing derby or spend a day on an ice-covered lake or pond where you can catch a variety of fish.
Snowmobiling abounds in the Wolfeboro area with trails that lead all over the region. Like the wide open spaces? In the heart of winter, ice covered lakes offer great snow-mobiling where you will have the unique experience of being on the lake with spectacular mountain views all around. Snowmobiles have access from the lake into Cate Park, or park at the end of the trail at the former railroad station.
