Big Wilson Falls is made up of several cascades and drops and is one of the most accessible waterfalls in Maine with no hiking required. Located in the Moosehead Region in Maine, Big Wilson Falls is located to the right of the bridge on Elliotsville Road and can be reached by merely parking near the bridge and walking down the hill to the falls. The falls have several large rocks to clamber around on and a small beach that is perfect for picnicking, swimming, and relaxing for the day. Big Wilson Falls are at their best in the autumn when there is reasonable water flow, and the surrounding foliage creates a palette of amazing colors and hues.
