Welcome to Hanover!

Hanover is where New England comes alive! Its special charm is its unique combination of urban cultural sophistication, Ivy-League New England village atmosphere and natural beauty and recreational opportunities.

Hanover's historic, four-block downtown features over ninety distinctive specialty shops, brand name stores and twenty restaurants. Downtown Hanover is home to nine theaters, the Hopkins Center for the Arts and the Hood Museum of Art. Immediately adjacent to the downtown is Dartmouth College's architecturally-stunning campus, ninth oldest in the United States.

Within walking distance of the downtown is a challenging 18-hole golf course and boating on the pristine Connecticut River, a national heritage river. Within easy drive are hundreds of day hikes, some of the most beautiful biking in America and dozens of ski areas.

Easy to reach via I-91, I-89 or by NH airports, enjoy in any season...for a day, a weekend, or a lifetime.

Rated the second best place to live in America by CNN and Money Magazine.
