Best way to NH from NJ

Next month we are going to New Hampshire from New Jersey. Laconia up off 93. What is the best route? I know we can't use Merit Parkway and some other roads that are passenger vehicle only.

  • Just watch days and time for traveling especially through the cities - no rush hours or lunch times. Depends on whether you're trying to travel fast or stop to see the sites on the way.
  • Why would you be wanting to come to NH in June? Don't you know it will be full of crazed "old" bikers trying to re-live their youth?

    There's nothing worse than to be riding down the road in the RV and have a pack "Iron Horsemen" swarm around you... It use to be very intimidating, but now, it's a bunch of old Doctors, Lawyers and Business men dressed up in leathers trying to look bad. What a joke, can't wait to see what they look like in 10 more years.

    Not knowing,where in NJ...but I might go 287 to 87 north to 84 in Newburgh,NY...then 84 into Ct past Waterbury to 691 north...up into Rocky Hill,ct...take rt3 across the river to Rt2 north to 84...which now put you on the east side of Hartford...away from any traffic..all good road..then 84 to Mass...to 90 to 495 north to 93.....Chuck

  • Beware, Father's Day weekend is bike week up there. Unless that is
    why you are going up there.
