About Dixville Notch State Park

This 127-acre park sits beside State Route 26 in northern New Hampshire. Though compact, it offers views over a scenic gorge carved by Flume Brook and features waterfalls on two mountain streams. A short walk from a roadside parking area leads to the Baby Flume, a cascade that drops about 18 feet over three steps, with smaller falls and a pool farther downstream. Hiking trails continue toward Table Rock and nearby peaks. Pets are welcome, while drone flying is prohibited within state park boundaries. The park office is not staffed in the off-season, and comfort stations are closed then, so visitors should prepare accordingly.
