Follow the river and you will follow the path many early settlers took. Connecticut River, which flows from northern New Hampshire to the Long Island Sound provided transportation and easy access to southern New England markets. Here the line of defense was drawn during the French and Indian Wars at numbered forts, including Fort No. 4, now the town of Charlestown.

Attractions in the Dartmouth-Lake Sunapee Region run from the natural to the historic.

Sports enthusiasts have plenty to choose from year-round, from downhill and cross country skiing in winter; to boating, swimming and fishing on the Connecticut River and the many lakes and ponds in the summer. There are hundreds of miles of hiking and mountain biking trails, a number of challenging golf courses, State Beaches and State Parks.
