Exploring Maine’s natural attractions is a great way to get to know the state a little bit better. Even if you’ve lived here for years (or all your life!) there’s always something new to see. Or, if you’ve already seen it all (that seems hard to believe) consider visiting at a different time of year to experience things in a whole new way. Today’s focus waterfall is one you’ve likely heard of, but if you haven’t visited, then it’s time to add it to your list!
Angel Falls is one of the most beautiful waterfalls in the state and it's accessible via a forested one-mile trail near Byron.
If you choose to visit during the summer, consider making another visit in the fall. The foliage makes things beautiful and the water flows beautifully just after a rain.
While this hike is relatively short, remember that there are some exposed roots and rocks. This is best for people with solid footing. And, of course, those who love Maine's waterfalls!
Angel Falls Trail is considered at its best from April to November. Dogs are allowed, just remember to keep them on a leash. You can learn more about the trail and the waterfall on alltrails.com. Or, check it out on Maine Trail Finder.
