Set on the Bickford Brook in the Caribou-Speckled Mountain Wilderness, deep within the White Mountain National Forest, Bickford Slides is a splendid 90-foot waterfall that is made up of two tiers of cascades and slides, the upper of which is 40 feet high, while the lower is 50 feet. Hidden in a ravine between the Blueberry and Sugarloaf Mountains, Bickford Brook makes its way downstream towards its confluence with the Cold River, and the Bickford Slides can be found along the way. They can be reached by several popular hiking trails that wind their way through heavily shaded glens and there are pleasant swimming holes to dip into after the hike.

Address: White Mountain National Forest, Stow, Oxford County, Maine
