Pumgustuk, also called the First Falls or Lower Falls, is the lowest of four falls on the Royal River in Yarmouth, about a mile above the harbor and about 0.35 mile downstream of the Second Falls. The overlook of Grist Mill Park sits on the foundations of an 1813 grist mill at the falls, and the East Main Street (Route 88) bridge spans the river at the falls. The parking spot for the overlook and the exact path to it were not confirmed from a town or trail source.
