Things to Do In and Around Sandwich
Sandwich is one of the largest and most rural towns in the Lakes Region — a spread-out landscape of farms, forest, and dirt roads tucked between Squam Lake and the peaks of the Sandwich Range. Its beating heart is the historic village of Center Sandwich, a walkable cluster of white clapboard buildings, galleries, and a village green that has drawn artisans for a century.
Center Sandwich village and its craft heritage
The village of Center Sandwich is a well-preserved 19th-century settlement of shops, galleries, and the Town Hall around a green. Its craft roots run deep — the Sandwich Home Industries began here in 1926 to market locally made rugs and handwork, and became a founding chapter of the League of New Hampshire Craftsmen, which was formed in 1932. The gallery on Main Street, now the Center Sandwich Fine Craft Gallery, still shows fine handwork from New Hampshire artisans.
The Sandwich Fair
Held every Columbus Day weekend, the Sandwich Fair is one of New Hampshire's oldest agricultural fairs, tracing its lineage back to the 1880s. It fills the fairgrounds with ox pulls, livestock shows, antique displays, harvest exhibits, and fair food, and draws thousands to town at the peak of foliage season — the single busiest weekend on the local calendar.
The Sandwich Range and Sandwich Notch Road
The town sits at the foot of the Sandwich Range, the wall of White Mountain peaks that gives the area its dramatic backdrop. The old Sandwich Notch Road threads north through the hills toward Thornton — a narrow, rough, largely unpaved back road that is scenic and historic, though slow going and best left to sturdy vehicles.
Hiking Mount Israel and the Squam Range
Mount Israel, reached by the Wentworth Trail from the Mead Base area, climbs to open ledges around 2,630 feet with close-up views of the higher Sandwich Range peaks — a rewarding half-day hike. The Squam Range along the town's southwest edge offers quieter woods walks and connects into the broader Squam Lakes trail network.
Squam Lake on the south end
Sandwich reaches down to the north shore of Squam Lake, the clear, island-dotted lake made famous by On Golden Pond. It is a quieter, less developed lake than Winnipesaukee, prized for paddling, loon-watching, and long views of the surrounding hills.
Rural, unspoiled character
Sandwich is deliberately undeveloped — a large town by area with a small population, miles of dirt roads, working farms, conservation land, and no strip of commercial sprawl. That quiet, spread-out feel is the point, and it is what buyers here are looking for.
Living in Sandwich Year-Round
Winter
Winters are snowy and genuinely rural — expect unplowed stretches of dirt road, wood smoke, and quiet. Cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, and backcountry outings are the local pace, and ski areas at Waterville Valley and beyond are a short drive for downhill days. Being off the interstate means winter storms ask for preparation and a capable vehicle.
Spring
Spring arrives slowly in the hills, with mud season softening the dirt roads before the ground firms up. Sugarhouses run in the early weeks, streams run high with snowmelt, and the woods green up gradually. It is a muddy, unhurried transition that rewards patience.
Summer
Summer is the season the town opens up — Squam Lake for paddling and swimming, trails on Mount Israel and the ranges, and the village green busy with visitors and craft browsers. Days are warm and evenings cool, and the lake stays quieter than the busier resorts to the south. Farm stands and the creamery mark the rhythm of the week.
Fall
Fall is Sandwich at its finest, when the Sandwich Range and Squam basin turn gold and crimson. Columbus Day weekend brings the Sandwich Fair and the year's biggest crowds, followed by crisp, clear days ideal for hiking and back-road drives. Leaf-peepers thin out by November, leaving the town to settle back into its quiet.

Sandwich vs. Nearby Towns
If Sandwich's rural quiet feels like a lot to take on, a few neighbors offer more services or lake frontage while keeping the same Lakes Region character.
Moultonborough
Just southeast, Moultonborough offers extensive Squam and Winnipesaukee frontage, more year-round amenities, and a wider range of waterfront property than spread-out Sandwich.
Center Harbor
A small, walkable village at the top of Winnipesaukee, Center Harbor pairs lake access with everyday shops and services a bit closer at hand than Sandwich's back roads.
Holderness
On the south shore of Squam Lake, Holderness shares Sandwich's love of the quieter lake but sits right off I-93, trading some rural remove for easier highway access.
