Three waterfalls in one hike? Tell me more!
Join us for this 5.2-mile, moderate hike of Purgatory Falls in Lyndeborough/Wilton, NH. The hike takes 2-3 hours. The trail can be muddy, and black flies can be a problem. Please bring appropriate footwear with traction for wet rocks, sunscreen, bug spray, plenty of water, and lunch. If you think you want to go into the water, I would recommend bringing water shoes, too. There are a few parking lots for the falls, so be sure to look for “Lower Falls” when searching on your GPS of choice. I hope you can join us!
