If your into hiking you may want to climb Red Hill(Bean Rd) to the fire Tower. Also there's Abenaki Tower in Tuftonborough on Rt109 a few miles south of Melvin Village. Traveling from Melvin Village there's an "S" curve and its at the top of the hill on the left at end of "S" curve. There's also a fire tower in Gilford but don't which Mtn, maybe Belknap.
Another place is West Rattlesnake Mtn(Rt113) in Holderness. Takes about a half hour or so and its an easy climb. Bring a back pack for a picnic, awesome view. You may want to try the tour on Squam Lake out of Holderness, nice ride.
Tried the Zipline at Wildcat last year, awesome. Its only 2-3 years old.
Its about a 50sec ride up to 45mph. Pay one price, 2nd ride half the price.
Don't know exactly what they have for breaking but they have a spring at the end and according to the operator they test it every day. To get to the top of the Zipline you ride a chairlift and then walk along a path.
