What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Visitors consistently praise Baker's Brook Falls for its rewarding scenery and accessible trail, making it a highlight for many. While the falls are spectacular, some note that trees can obstruct direct views and that certain boardwalk sections could use maintenance. Overall, it's considered an easy and beautiful hike.
"By far, one of the easiest and most rewarding (in terms of the falls) hikes in the area. Most of the way is paved and has wooden planks.
My suggestion: start as early in the morning as possible. You'll run into the little friends (frogs) all over the place. Overall, a beautiful experience."
Shrey Agarwal
"Well with the walk for the beautiful falls at the end. The trail could do with a bit of maintenance. Some of the board walks aren't as stable and there's some muddy bits that could do with board walks. The moose exclusion zone was interesting to see the difference in how much they eat locally."
Jason Robbins
"Easy hike, about 6 miles round trip. Beautiful meadows and the falls are spectacular. Worth the hike for sure"
