Sabbaday Falls, Cascading waterfall in White Mountain National Forest, New Hampshire.
Sabbaday Falls is a multi-tiered waterfall in White Mountain National Forest where water flows over granite formations along Sabbaday Brook. The cascade creates small pools and rushing sections as it descends through the landscape.
The name came from early settlers who discovered the location on a Saturday and used it as a rest stop before Sunday. This naming reflects how daily routines of frontier settlers shaped local place names.
The waterfall serves as a central point for nature photographers who document seasonal changes in the White Mountains throughout the year.
A short maintained trail starts from the Kancamagus Highway and leads to viewing platforms with multiple angles. The path is easy to access and the platforms offer safe spots for watching and photography.
The bedrock beneath the waterfall displays deep smooth channels carved by thousands of years of water erosion. These geological marks tell the story of relentless force slowly but steadily shaping stone.
