Watch Angel Falls cascade 90 feet in western Maine’s Franklin County. It has been hailed as being one of the most spectacular in the state. Located near the town of Byron, Angel Falls is fed by Mountain Brook and tumbles happily down a rocky cliff for 90 feet before pouring into a pool below.

Named Angel Falls due to its water flow resembling the form of an angel, the waterfall can easily be reached by taking Route 17 from Byron until a short hiking trail marked by signs is visible. The path leads through the woods for about 0.8 miles to the waterfall, which is surrounded by lush vegetation and offers a beautiful place to relax in peace. Angel Falls are best visited in June or July when the weather is optimal for hiking and the water levels are full.

Address: Byron, Franklin County, Maine
