In many ways, the town of Colebrook is the southern gateway to New Hampshire’s Great North Woods. Located along the Connecticut River, Colebrook is home to a charming downtown that is as ruggedly beautiful as the surrounding natural scenery. While it makes an ideal base camp from which to explore the area and experience such outdoor adventures as hiking, hunting and fishing, it’s also a wonderful destination for anyone who enjoys the benefits of civilization, with enjoyable restaurants, interesting shops and impressive cultural attractions.
