New Hampshire has some of the best waterfalls in New England, not to mention the entire country. Whether tall or small, they’re all worth exploring. But there’s something special about the one that’s considered the tallest in the state. And best of all, the trail to see it isn’t as challenging as you might think. Head out on this family-friendly route and you’ll enjoy a perfectly splendid day surrounded by nature. Arethusa Falls is an epic journey and one of the best hikes we have ever done in New Hampshire.
