At 3,097 acres, Lake Wentworth is the seventh-largest lake in New Hampshire. There are 18 named islands in the lake, with public access to the lake available at Wentworth State Park.

This section of Dundee Road is smooth gravel/dirt. It can be ridden with skinny tires, but exercise caution on some steep sections of the decent.

Jackson Falls is a cool set of cascades on the Wildcat River. You can see the falls from the side of the road both above and below the cascades.

Everything is possible! I went from east to west w a 35kg, approx 80lb, loaded touring bike and I made it. Took me about 45min but it's a great ride. Then head down into Conway! Not much traffic, great road quality. It's short and steep, I walked about 600m (the two 17% parts).

Evans Notch is a great spot to hit while out cycling. The South side is steeper and therefor more difficult to climb. The North side is comparatively much easier. On the flip side, going down the South side is really fun and fast, just be careful of the curves and oncoming traffic. Early morning is the best time to avoid the traffic.

Really steep, fast and fun descent, watch your speed and cars coming in the opposite direction, and enjoy the ride!

Thorn Hill Road peels off from 16A, both from the north and the south, and rises up over the shoulder of Thorn Hill whichever way you take it. It acts as a more scenic way of getting to and from Jackson and Bartlett, with smooth tarmac and a paucity of cars. But, you probably won't have too much time to admire the scenery. Approaching from Jackson at the north, the hill is a persistent grade which hovers around 5% or so with a few kicks up to 10%, over about 1.5 km (1 mile). Not easy, but click into your lowest gear and grind your way up past the Inn on the right (watch for cars parking here) to the plateau, to enjoy the downhill. Approaching from the south, and Bartlett, is more challenging. It starts with a flat(er) section where you can spin up as best you can, before you hit the real slope. Over the next 1 km, the grade will average at 8%, and hit 18% at places. You'll pass a Maple Syrup farm, and also a couple of houses, who sometimes have their dogs out (read "chase!"). But keep pushing until you get to the plateau, and even a small downhill at the top, before you can fly downhill all the way into Jackson.
