Visit Berlin guideAbout Shelburne
Nestled in the heart of the White Mountains along the Androscoggin River, Shelburne is a pristine wilderness town that embodies the rugged beauty of northern New Hampshire. With just 372 residents, this remote community offers an authentic mountain experience where the sound of rushing water mingles with the whisper of ancient forests. The town serves as a gateway to some of the most spectacular outdoor recreation in the Northeast, from the towering peaks of the Presidential Range to the pristine waters of the Thirteen Mile Woods. Shelburne's history is deeply rooted in logging and paper manufacturing, with the Androscoggin River serving as a vital transportation route for timber drives. Today, while the industrial era has passed, the town maintains its connection to the land through sustainable forestry, outdoor recreation, and a strong conservation ethic. Visitors and residents alike are drawn to Shelburne's untouched wilderness, world-class fishing, and the kind of peace that can only be found in one of New Hampshire's most remote and beautiful corners.
