A hike just about anywhere in New Hampshire will show you some of the best parts of the local landscape. From forest to coast to rivers to lakes, there’s a lot of nature to appreciate here. Despite there being so many hiking options, we love the trails we’ve done over-and-over again. They provide comfort and familiarity and there are times that’s just what we need. And sometimes there are features along the trails that are easy to miss when you just explore them once. This route, located in Franconia Notch State Park, is typically used to reach a challenging summit, but we love the scenic waterfall in New Hampshire that can be found along the way. And without all the effort that the summit requires!
