Brownstone Falls is a modest but scenic plunge waterfall in Wisconsin, falling 30 ft.
The falls are fed by Tyler Fork (Bad River). You'll find it in Ashland County, Wisconsin. It is protected within Wisconsin DNR (Copper Falls State Park).
This is a short hike waterfall: reached by a short trail, generally under about a mile each way. The walk to the main viewpoint runs about 1.7 miles round trip. Base a visit out of Mellen, the closest town.
When to go: Spring and after rain. Like most waterfalls, Brownstone Falls runs highest after snowmelt or heavy rain and can thin out in late summer, so it's worth checking recent streamflow and the land manager's conditions page before a long drive.
