Huntington Cascades are two horsetail falls, about 18 and 50 feet high, on Cascade Brook in Dixville Notch State Park. The trail starts at the wayside parking area with picnic tables and a toilet, crosses Cascade Brook on a wooden bridge, and climbs gently 0.2 miles to the falls. The Three Brothers Trail continues beyond toward Table Rock.
