It is named after John Hancock, a prominent signer of the Declaration of Independence. Discover its many recreational opportunities, from canoeing to hiking to skiing. Explore the [Green Mountain National Forest](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Green-Mountain-National-Forest-Hancock.d6115904.Attraction), which comprises 82 percent of Hancock’s land.
