Errol and Lake Umbagog

 

OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERAIn the far northeastern corner of New Hampshire, Errol is an outpost for sportsmen and outdoor enthusiasts, with superb fishing, camping, ATVing and snowmobiling. About seven miles east of the village is Lake Umbagog, a clear and pristine lake straddling the New Hampshire/Maine border, and home to magnificent wildlife — moose, osprey, bald eagles and loons. And because it is largely undeveloped and forever preserved, it offers a true back-to-nature experience. Umbagog Lake State Park, on the New Hampshire side, has 35 campsites with some amenities and another 34 remote sites accessible only by boat. A boat launch and canoe rentals are available.
