Lebanon is a hidden gem that blends a lively “urban-suburban” vibe with outdoor adventure, featuring a thriving arts scene at the Lebanon Opera House and endless recreation on the Northern Rail Trail. You’ll find a surprising amount of culture and dining here, largely thanks to its proximity to Dartmouth College, making it a perfect base for a travel therapist who wants community and activity rather than isolation.
For a change of pace, the bustling college town of Hanover is just minutes away, while Manchester, the state’s largest city, offers a major urban escape within a 75-mile drive.
