Located in Andover, NH, Highland Lake is a peaceful spring-fed New England lake that’s often overlooked for some of the larger lakes in the area, but should not be missed! Offering great fishing and a scenic shoreline for kayaking, paddleboarding and boating.
Public boat access is located off of Channel Road across from the East Andover Volunteer Fire Department, and there is a public beach just down the road with picnic tables. The Northern Rail Trail skirts the lake offering miles upon miles of fantastic biking and walking trails. If you’re looking for a place to stay close by, check out The Highland Lake Inn.
