A multi-step waterfall on Sanderson Brook in Chester-Blandford State Forest, with the visible lower cascades dropping about 60-65 feet and a cumulative drop of roughly 115 feet across several steps. A short walk on an old woods road reaches the falls.
At 60 ft, it stands above roughly 48% of the 775 documented falls in this guide.
The falls are fed by Sanderson Brook. You'll find it in Hampden, Massachusetts. It is protected within Chester-Blandford State Forest (MA DCR).
This is a short hike waterfall: reached by a short trail, generally under about a mile each way. A short walk gets you to the viewpoint, so it works for most casual visitors and families. The walk to the main viewpoint runs about 2 miles round trip. Base a visit out of Chester, the closest town.
When to go: spring through fall. Expect the strongest flow in spring and after big storms, with a quieter trickle by late summer; confirm current conditions with the land manager before committing to the drive.
