This itinerary takes you up Route 7 and into New Hampshire. A trip to New England should include a drive along the western edge of the region through the states of Connecticut, Massachusetts, and Vermont. Fortunately, Route 7 follows the contours of this western edge almost exactly and is the backbone of this itinerary. The itinerary then weaves a journey through the backroads of New Hampshire to experience the splendor and glory of New England’s fall foliage.
