Who needs a dog park when you have an ice runway? 🐾✈️

Planes are officially taking off and landing on the ice — a winter phenomenon that returns to Alton Bay every year. If your cabin fever is reaching its peak, take a cue from this couple: grab your favorite co-pilot (a.k.a your furry best friend) and watch the action unfold right on the frozen lake.

The Lakes Region offers plenty of ways to explore the outdoors with your four-legged companion, so bundle up and make the most of winter before spring arrives!

Coffee first? Straight to the lake? A walk through your favorite town? Or the same spot you’ve been stopping at for years?

You’ve made the drive, the car’s still full, and the weekend (or week) is just beginning.

Only in the Lakes Region (and Alaska!) ✈️🧊

Planes are officially taking off and landing on Lake Winnipesaukee! The Alton Bay Ice Runway opened earlier this month, transforming the "Big Lake" into a bustling airport.

Thanks to plow trucks clearing nearly 2 feet of snow and a solid 12-inch ice depth, we are welcoming aircraft back to the bay.

Whether you are a pilot or a spectator, this is a winter sight you don`t want to miss this winter.
