The world is opening up, which means it's time to travel again! Yankee Magazine Sr. Features Editor Ian Aldrich says he expects people to look to the outdoors for fun this summer.
Luckily here in New England, you don't need to go far for an amazing getaway. Maria Sansone checked in with Aldrich for his favorite road trip hidden gems.
- Bike Hike :
There's a bike trip you can take across New Hampshire that Ian writes about in the latest issue. He says you don't need to be a professional cyclist to bike the state. It's a 90-mile trail ride that you can do over time, and the views, places, and people you'll see and meet will make for a trip you'll never forget.
