On Souhegan River
The Souhegan River is a tributary of the Merrimack River in southern New Hampshire, formed by the convergence of its South and West branches in New Ipswich. It flows about 34 miles through Greenville, Wilton, Milford and Amherst before joining the Merrimack River in Merrimack. At Wildcat Falls in Merrimack the river drops 83 feet over a series of three falls. On May 28, 2000, the river was listed as a designated river under the New Hampshire Rivers Management and Protection Act, and it was one of the first two designated rivers where the state applied its Instream Flow Program.
