Prepare for a difficult hiking experience on the Georgiana and Harvard Falls Trail, a 1.2-mile (1.9 km) route that packs a punch with 776 feet (236 metres) of elevation gain. You'll spend about 55 minutes navigating its steep and bouldery terrain, leading you to the impressive Georgiana Falls. Beyond that, the path becomes even rougher as you push towards the wild and majestic Harvard Falls, where the brook plunges dramatically.
Planning your visit requires some preparation. Parking is usually available close to the trailhead, but be aware that the path to Harvard Falls is not always clearly marked, so bring your navigational tools. The terrain is notably bouldery and steep, especially after Georgiana Falls, so watch your footing for wet rocks. This route is considered difficult, so come prepared for a challenging ascent.
This trail stands out for its dramatic waterfalls and the scenic Harvard Brook, which is known as one of the prettier brooks in the White Mountain National Forest. Georgiana Falls offers multiple cascades, including a 30-foot waterfall with natural water slides and a deep pool. Further up, Harvard Falls plunges over 60 feet into a chasm, creating a striking diamond shape, and you can even find views over Route 93 and Loon Mountain.
