About this spot
Series of cascades on Cold Brook in the small Alan & Edgar Rice Natural Area, Lyndeborough NH; easy 0.75-mile loop, roadside turnout parking for about two cars on Lyndeborough Road. Well photographed and blogged (Flickr, NH Family Hikes, trailspotting.com) but described as horsetail/cascade scenery rather than a swimming destination — no jump or swim culture found in multiple searches.
Safety first. Cliff jumping is inherently dangerous and can cause serious injury or death. Conditions — water depth, submerged hazards, and access — change constantly. CliffScout is community-sourced reference information, not a guarantee a spot is safe. Always assess the conditions yourself before jumping, and never jump where you're unsure. You assume all risk.
