Our family took our miniature poodle for a scenic walk along the Swift River, crossed a pedestrian bridge (for superb photos), and walked a short way to Falls Pond (which had many frogs & tadpoles, but few people). If you're looking for a less crowded alternative to Lower Falls, this is a great stop. Many families were bathing in the water among the rocks. But the pathway beyond the pedestrian bridge had very few people. Would highly recommend this stop in summer if you're driving along the scenic highway and just want to stretch your legs for 30 minutes.

There are plenty of benches along the walkways for anyone who is looking to take a rest and a plaque giving some history about this landmark.

My husband and I chose this spot to get married, have a picnic, and read some letters from loved ones. We couldn't have asked for a more beautiful spot on our most special day.

I feel the need to preface all of my nature reviews with this: being 90% forested and having around…read more3500 miles of coastline, Maine (and NH) has a tremendous amount of spaces, walkways, paths, and trails of all kinds and of all levels. There's something for everyone. What I'm reviewing is how a spot compares to similar outdoor spots in my personal opinion. Being in nature - and remembering to carry in, carry out - is always five stars! :) Parking? Yes. Loop trail? No. Well marked signs? No. Element of surprise? Yes. I didn't realize until recently that Steep Falls was more than just the name of a town (or bridge) in Maine. I mean, I knew it was named after the falls it surrounds, but I guess I didn't realize you could access those falls for a nature walk! We first came during late autumn. There's a small parking lot, but you want to walk across Main St/Route 11 (before the bridge) to the other side because there's nothing actually adjacent to the parking lot itself. There are pretty obvious trails from here, but nothing is marked. Just follow the water itself (except for one spot, which you'll have to veer away from the water, into the woods, over a much smaller bridge [meant for snowmobiles? ATVs?] over Tucker Brook [I think?] then back down to the water). The fun fact about this spot is that, while it's nearly 75 feet across apparently it's only a six food drop, but still manages to be one of the top volume waterfalls in the entire state (with the water flowing steadily and strongly all year round). From what I've heard from locals, this is a spot to party at during the summer (even when we came we saw remnants of fire pits on the beach before the falls). Just sitting on the rocks so close to the falls was pretty stunning; it's loud, it's splashy, and it feels entirely remote as this part of Saco River is surrounded by tall evergreens!

It is the third bridge built at this location. We were in the area and drove over this bridge. Since I am a fan of history and covered bridges, I had to research and of course, add it on Yelp. It's a lovely covered bridge. There is parking nearby so a great spot to leaf peep. Definitely a must see if in the area and you like history.

There was ample parking and it's a nicely maintained area. The waterfall has multiple levels and a gorge. I really love the wooden bridges, viewing platforms, and railings, it reminded me of the Enders Falls in Granby, CT. My family and I enjoyed the hike and the views. It's a beautiful spot and worth a visit!

So a slight incline as you walk up to the falls. This waterfall drops through a stone flume that it has carved out of the earth for centuries. It almost bounces from rock wall to rock wall as it makes its way to the emerald pool at the bottom. The pool is strictly off limits to swimmers. There is a wooden staircase that climbs to the top of the falls, you should always stay within the rails of the wooden fences. As you get to the top you're face to face with the water as it plummets through the air and flume to the rocks below. The colors here are so magnificent in spring with the variations of green and in fall with all the beautiful autumn colors. I suggest a stop here in every season. In the winter you will 100% need micro spikes to get through the trail. It's so worth it to see this beautiful place through every season we have here in New England. Sabbaday is a beautiful place and has a soft spot in my heart. It's like stepping into a fairy world of green trees and mossy rocks to its wooden paths, and cascading water fall. If you've never been, you simply must check it out. The path is wide enough for strollers, scooters, or chairs, but again, would have to stop where the staircase begins. The cost is $5 to park in the lot, which isn't much considering all that goes into making these parks so great. There are a few spots with picnic tables to eat lunch, but the bugs will be having lunch as well! You! Still worth every second!

This is a better vantage point of both lakes Winnipesauke and Wentworth. Higher up too. I came on a cloudy day and it was still breathtaking.

The Riverwalk Covered Bridge wasn't visible from the main road but is located behind Main Street. I believe the building next to it is the Schilling Beer Co, the one with a cool waterfall behind its 18th century grist mill building on the river. We parked behind the shops and walked down towards the historic sign. We were able to see some great views of the river as we walked across the covered bridge. The bridge is long and beautiful. We were impressed in how large the bridge was. At the other end of the bridge is a Farmers Market building. Very pleasant walk... we then made our way on foot to check out Main Street. Review #3042
