Beyond The Rocks, a world of adventure awaits. Whether you’re teeing off at nearby golf courses, embarking on scenic hikes, or indulging in local attractions like Lost River Gorge and Santa’s Village, there’s no shortage of excitement within reach.
June Events:
The Rocks’ Annual Wildflower Festival ~ Saturday, June 7 from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.
This community event celebrates New Hampshire’s native flora with a day of guided identification walks.
Local wildflower enthusiast Ginny Jeffryes will lead two three-hour wildflower identification walks, the first from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. and the second from 1 to 4 p.m. at Forest Society North at The Rocks, 113 Glessner Road in Bethlehem. The identification walks take place on the Mile Path trail at The Rocks, which is usually off limits to the public except for special programs. The Mile Path originally led from the entrance of the historic estate to the homes of the Glessner family, who owned The Rocks until donating the property to the Forest Society in 1978. The Rocks’ Senior Outreach Manager Nigel Manley will join the walks to give context to the history of the property and the Glessner family’s enthusiasm for native flowers found in the region.
These popular walks sell out quickly and are limited to 12 participants each. To reserve your spot, click here. Participants should bring their own lunch or snacks, water, bug spray, and sunscreen.

Tiny Houses of Yesteryears ~ Friday, June 27 from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m.
The rise in popularity of Tiny Homes has changed how we use the wording in popular language today. Join Nigel Manley, senior outreach manager at The Rocks, as he explains how giving tours of Fanny’s Playhouse has evolved with the popularity of tiny homes. Come and watch programing about actual playhouses, that were built large enough and appointed well enough to live in. See the playhouse on Queen Victoria’s summer home as well as the one at The Rocks. After the fascinating program about the playhouses, join The Rocks staff to see the 1886 house and visit the original site of the building. Tickets are free for members of the Forest Society, Bethlehem and Littleton Historical Society and non-members are $5. Registration is required.
