TheEast Branch of the Pemigewasset River is a 15.8-mile-long (25.4 km)^[1]river located in theWhite Mountains ofNew Hampshire in theUnited States. It is atributary of thePemigewasset River, part of theMerrimack River watershed.

The East Branch is a longer and larger river than the river that it flows into, but it is named a branch of the main stem because its source lies deep in thePemigewasset Wilderness of the White Mountains, while the main Pemigewasset River flows directly fromFranconia Notch, a majorpass through the mountains. The East Branch begins in the locality known as Stillwater, in a wide valley north ofMount Carrigain andMount Hancock, where several large brooks converge. The river flows west and southwest through the heart of the Pemigewasset Wilderness, picking up tributaries such as theNorth Fork of the Pemigewasset and Franconia Branch before reaching, at the Lincoln Woods Visitor Center, theKancamagus Highway stretch ofNew Hampshire Route 112.

Now into developed areas, the East Branch meets the Hancock Branch coming from the southeast and flows past theLoon Mountain ski area to the village ofLincoln, New Hampshire. The river crosses intoWoodstock and ends at the Pemigewasset River just downstream from theInterstate 93 highway bridges.
