Favourite spots: |
Hampton host a small yet interesting nature park. It has short hiking trails, which takes you through a small forest and to the Hampton river. A roofed deck is available for a quick picnic. It`s also a great place to watch and admire the beaver dam, `a real one`built amid the river. You`ll have the chance to explore, if you bring binoculors, the wildlife and flora that grows in the clean swamp.

What's really great: |
Hampton has a small town look with a friendly atmosphere. The town center consist of barely a dozen buildings. Yet you experience clean and proud edifices. Surprisingly enough, many buildings are actually part of the New Brunswich Heritage. The houses along the river, which are of a breathtaking view, were mostly built within the Victorian era, which gives the town a charming setting.
