Cloudland Falls

Cloudland Falls is the third of three beautiful named waterfalls along New Hampshire's Falling Waters Trail in Franconia Notch State Park. Located along Dry Brook, Cloudland Falls is a striking 80-foot cascade. From the Old Bridle Path Trailhead, it's a 1.1-mile hike to see. Along the way, you'll also see Stairs Falls and Swiftwater Falls, which are nearly back-to-back. The path to these waterfalls is often included as part of the 8.6-mile Franconia Ridge loop hike, which is considered one of the best hikes in the White Mountains. However, if you're short on time or just in it for the waterfalls, hiking out and back is only a 2.2-mile journey.
