Discover One Of New Hampshire’s Most Majestic Waterfalls — No Hiking Necessary
Here in New Hampshire, we’re lucky enough to enjoy many stunning waterfalls, from little ones in streams to the massive Arethusa falls. Most of them, though, require at least a little hiking to get to, and that can be a challenge for those with limited mobility, small children, or any number of other circumstances. Since everyone should be able to experience the majesty of the Granite State, we’re sharing one waterfall that you can see right from your car, making it one of the most accessible natural sites in the state. You won’t want to miss this gorgeous spot!
We’re aware that these uncertain times are limiting many aspects of life as we all practice social and physical distancing. While we’re continuing to feature destinations that make our state wonderful, we don’t expect or encourage you to go check them out immediately. We believe that supporting local attractions is important now more than ever and we hope our articles inspire your future adventures! And on that note, please nominate your favorite local business that could use some love right now: https://www.onlyinyourstate.com/nominate/
You'll find Beaver Brook Falls Wayside right on Route 145 in Colebrook – just pull off into the parking area and you're there!
Just past the parking area is a small green space with several benches and picnic tables right in front of the waterfall – but you don't even have to get out of your car to see it! Of course, if you do, it's a great place to sit a while and have a picnic meal or snack.
With more than an 80 foot drop, the falls are quite dramatic. Visit more than once and you'll notice that the amount and speed of water varies throughout the year, but it's always stunning.
