At a glance
Overview
Topsham Falls is the historic ledge on the Androscoggin River between Topsham and Brunswick, now shaped by the Brunswick-Topsham hydroelectric dam. It is a downtown river viewpoint with mill-era history, not a swim; the reach below the dam runs fast and cold. Walk the pedestrian bridges between the two downtowns for the best look.
