[Yankee]( ©Yankee Magazine/Mark Fleming There’s no easy way to narrow down the best New England towns for a winter weekend, but our ten favorites deserve their place in the winter sun. Join the editors and readers of Yankee magazine to discover 10 winter destinations you’ll love, all with your [Yankee All Access Charter Membership]( Dear , In one New Hampshire town, you can blink and miss the turn-off—and what a pity that would be. Venture through a covered bridge to enter another era, one where serenity and stirring scenery merge to create an ideal escape from modernity at any time of the year, but especially in the winter months. With a circular green, ringed by inns, antiques shops, and cafés, it has been home to a thriving town since the mid-19th century. But don’t expect any commercialism; that’s a few miles down the road. [Yankee]( ©Yankee Magazine/Mark Fleming Another town that made our list is better known for its picture-perfect harbor. Take a stroll along the waterfront then warm up in the adjacent public library, another beauty, which originated in 1796 with a donation of 200 books. Yet the most intriguing perk here come winter is that this is the only locale in America where you can ski downhill and peer out at an expanse of ocean. This ski area still has a mom-and-pop appeal, attracting many local families on the weekends, and it’s also home to a 440-foot-long ice-coated toboggan chute, where a steep track lets toboggans drop at speeds exceeding 30 miles per hour. If you want something a little less adventurous than tobogganing and skiing, there’s a Vermont resort town on our list that has something for everyone. Home to the most celebrated winter carnival in New England, this town also boasts popular restaurants, craft breweries, bakeries, and boutique shopping.
