At a glance
Overview
Upper Purgatory Falls is the smallest drop of the Purgatory Brook trio (Lower, Middle, Upper), sitting on the Lyndeborough / Mont Vernon town line above the Middle falls. Access is via informal trails extending upstream from the Middle Purgatory Falls area. Less visited than Lower Purgatory; only worth it if you're doing the full Purgatory Brook day.
