The majestic beauty of Champney Falls is on full display during this 3.1 mile out-and-back trail near Conway, New Hampshire. They are nestled in the White Mountain National Forest, which means there is an endless abundance of great views and natural wonders to take in during the hike.

The falls are a series of cascades that measure about 70 feet long. Water rushes over rock formations and micro cliffs, freezing icy in the winter to create a wonderland of icicles and snow bluffs.
