About Henniker

Henniker is the only Henniker in the world β€” and proud of it. New England College anchors the economy and cultural life, Pat's Peak Ski Area is walking distance from the village center, and the Contoocook River runs through town. It's genuinely affordable and has more character per square foot than most NH towns twice its size.
