Waterfalls
Beaver Brook Cascades Long, picturesque cascades .5 miles in next to a very steep section of the Beaver Brook Trail. Trailhead is on Rt. 112 at Kinsman Notch, 6 miles west of Rt. 3, N. Woodstock.
Agassiz Basin A unique series of potholes and cascades on Moosilauke Brook beside Rt. 112, 1.6 miles west of Rt. 3, North Woodstock.
Georgiana Falls These falls on Harvard brook are accessed by an unmarked trail leaving from a parking area off Hanson Farm Rd. in Lincoln. An easy 1.3 mile hike leads to lower falls in a beautiful wooded setting. The Upper, or Harvard Falls, are a steep 0.5 mile farther.
Bridal Veil Falls are reached by Coppermine Trail ( a 5 mile roundtrip hike from the trailhead off Rt. 116 near Franconia Village).
The Basin is a large pothole pool, also called "The Old Man’s Foot Basin." Waterfall enthusiasts should take the opportunity to follow the Basin-Cascades Trail for more lovely views, cascades and waterfalls.
Falling Waters 5 falls can be seen along this trail which begins opposite Lafayette Campground.
The Flume Gorge The walk through this 800 ft. natural chasm takes you past waterfalls and scenic pools. Your visit is enhanced by a free 15 minute movie on Franconia Notch State Park and the informative displays in the Visitor Center. (Admission charged for the Gorge.) Avalanche Falls, once called Flume Cascade is located at the head of the Flume.
Franconia Falls Located off the Lincoln Woods Trail, the falls are 3.2 miles in on a very level and easy trail. There are cold clear pools and a hip-wide water chute. Park on the Kancamagus Highway 4 miles east of Lincoln.
Lower Falls and Rocky Gorge On a hot summer day, these are especially popular. Lower Falls has pools with fast and slow-moving water, small sandy beaches, picnic tables, parking and changing rooms. Swimming is prohibited in Rocky Gorge, but you can take a dip in the pools above the falls.
Sabbaday Falls No swimming is permitted, but these picturesque falls are well worth the .3 mile easy walk from the parking area.
