Also known as the Lost River Gorge, the Reservation is a series of caves located in the White Mountains, roughly 5 miles from North Woodstock. The Lost River gets its name from the brook in the southern part of the river, which disappears into a steep glacial gorge filled with immense chunks of granite. The river emerges again to join the Pemigewasset River after taking its subterranean shortcut. The river is a great location for hiking and has a series of purpose built walkways that allow easy access to the caves.
