TheSawyer River is a 9.1-mile-long (14.6 km)[1]river in theWhite Mountains ofNew Hampshire in theUnited States. It is atributary of theSaco River, which flows to theAtlantic Ocean inMaine.

The Sawyer River rises in the unincorporated township ofLivermore, New Hampshire, on the eastern side of Hancock Notch, a pass in thePemigewasset Wilderness betweenMount Hancock to the north and Mount Huntington to the south. The river flows east, paralleled by the Hancock Notch Trail, into a broad valley withMount Carrigain to the north and the smaller summit known as Greens Cliff to the south.

The river turns northeast, with Carrigain Brook joining from the north and the outlet of Sawyer Pond joining from the south, and enters a deeper, narrower mountain valley as it descends toCrawford Notch. The river is paralleled in this lower section by the Sawyer River Road, a gravelForest Service access road open to the public May–October. The Sawyer River enters the town ofHart's Location and ends at the Saco River near its great bend to the east as it leaves Crawford Notch.
