Lake Carolyn Spillway

The Lake Carolyn Spillway in York, Maine is an easy 0.1-mile out-and-back walk that leads along the dam/spillway at Lake Carolyn.

Note that this is not a hike but rather a short walk along a rock wall / dam that runs along the south side of the lake, providing visitors with views of the water. Note that the Town of York owns very small slices of land that encompass Lake Carolyn, but most of the plots of land are dispersed and don't connect. As of June 2023 (and years earlier) there are no defined trails to explore here. At the far end of the dam is a small 2-foot tall spillway that acts as a human-made waterfall when the lake's water levels are high enough.

Parking
Visitors will find a small parking turnout at the coordinates provided. The lot is large enough to fit a few vehicles at most.

Pets
Dogs are allowed only if leashed and must be cleaned up after.
