About This Trail

A short 0.2-mile walk in Grafton Notch State Park leads to Screw Auger Falls, a 23-foot waterfall where the Bear River has carved a dramatic gorge through bedrock. The river’s swirling action has sculpted deep pools ideal for wading and swimming on warm days. Families enjoy picnicking along the water, though exposed ledges near the falls require caution.
