Pittsburg is a destination for [[snowmobile]] and [[all-terrain vehicle|ATV]] enthusiasts year round. In the winter months thousands of people visit Pittsburg to take advantage of the state-funded and club-supported and maintained trails that can bring snowmobilers from elsewhere in the state of New Hampshire to Pittsburg, with access to the states of [[Maine]], Vermont and the border crossing to [[Canada]]. Some of the same trails are used in the summer for ATVs.

Another focus in the area for tourists is [[fishing]] and [[hunting]]. Pittsburg is home to the four [[Connecticut Lakes]], [[Back Lake (New Hampshire)|Back Lake]], part of [[Lake Francis (Murphy Dam)|Lake Francis]], and numerous smaller water bodies. The lakes are annually stocked with fish and allow for fishing weekends. The area is known for [[fly fishing]]. Two sections of the Connecticut River are fly fishing only, including the "Trophy Stretch". The Connecticut Lakes Region has attracted anglers and hunters since the early 1900s. There are maps on the local snowmobile club's website that show trails in Pittsburg as well as roads and access points to the lakes and rivers.<ref>{{Cite web |url=http://www.pittsburgridgerunners.org/maps |title=Pittsburg Ridgerunners Snowmobile Club: Maps |access-date=February 18, 2015 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150218032910/http://www.pittsburgridgerunners.org/maps |archive-date=February 18, 2015 |url-status=dead }}</ref>

[[Lake Francis State Park]] allows for lakeside camping, fishing, and canoeing on the lake or the Connecticut River. [[Deer Mountain Campground]] enables camping and picnicking on the Connecticut River.
