About this park

A small trailhead off Summit Street that drops into the Forest City Trail network along the Presumpscot River, with a short walk to the Smelt Hill Dam falls. Dogs are welcome, the route is leashed, and the trail links into the larger Presumpscot River Preserve system for a longer outing.

The highlights

Reviewers describe a clean, well-maintained stretch with a few river-edge spots that open to the water. The falls section is short but worth the loop on a warm afternoon.

Before you go

Trail junctions aren't always clearly signed; bring a phone map or be ready to backtrack. Connecting to the larger Presumpscot River Preserve makes for a more substantial walk than the short trailhead implies.
