Reed Brook Falls in Kingfield

DAILY BULLDOG • May 23, 2026

My destination is Reed Brook Falls in Kingfield, one of my “go-to” Western Maine waterfalls. This wild brook, fed by the last of winter run-off, and the deluge of the past week, will be truly thundering over its steep 40’ drop on this bright day. I want to be there to see it – and to hear it. Once known mostly to locals, and reached by a rough trail that tended to wash out in spring, Reed Brook Falls has become a popular short-hike destination since the completion of a new 0.6 mile trail in 2020. ~ Dour Dunlap
