Swans Falls is one of the recorded waterfalls in Oxford County, Maine, in the Northeastern Highlands region. It lies about 1.5 miles north of Fryeburg and roughly 44.7 miles northwest of Portland as the crow flies.
No height measurement has been recorded for it yet. The water comes down as a dam-created falls, where a man-made structure creates the drop.
The Northeastern Highlands are the mountains of northern New England and the Adirondacks, with spruce-fir on the summits and northern hardwood forest of maple, beech and birch below, and countless lakes and boulder-strewn brooks. Fast mountain streams drop over granite and gneiss ledges in chains of falls and pools.
