Screw Auger Falls is a low punchbowl waterfall in Maine at 23 ft, but often a rewarding stop.

Screw Auger Falls sits on Bear River. You'll find it in Oxford, Maine. It is protected within Grafton Notch State Park.

This is a roadside waterfall: visible from a road, parking area, or a walk of a few hundred feet. The walk to the main viewpoint runs about 0.2 miles round trip. Base a visit out of Newry, the closest town.

When to go: Spring snowmelt (Apr-Jun). Like most waterfalls, Screw Auger 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.
