At a glance
Overview
Chasm Brook Falls is a small set of tiered drops on Chasm Brook on the western side of Mount Desert Island, inside Acadia National Park's less-visited Western Mountain corridor. It is a minor feature compared to the island's headline stops, best reached as a short side-trip off a carriage road or trail. Treat it as a scenic bushwhack-style look, not a swim.

From the park's western side, approach via the carriage road / trail system on Western Mountain near the mapped coordinates. The last stretch to the brook is informal; keep a light footprint.
