Heald Stream Falls Waterfall in Seboomook Lake, Maine
Heald Stream Falls in Seboomook Lake, Maine, offers a delightful short walk to some picturesque falls. The trail can be challenging to locate, as it begins from the right side of the parking area and is not well-marked. Visitors should be cautious on the gravel logging road leading to the falls, especially on weekdays, as it's narrow and frequented by fast-moving logging trucks. Despite these challenges, the waterfall itself is particularly impressive after a good rainfall, making the effort worthwhile.
