DRIVING DIRECTIONS: from Port Hawkesbury, follow HWY4 east from the town 11.8km and turn left onto County Line Rd. in Cleveland. Immediately trend left at the Y-intersection onto Riverside Rd. Follow this road 7.3km and turn right onto Cenotaph Road. Drive 7km along this highway, as it becomes Big Brook Road, and watch for the falls on your left.
TRAIL DESCRIPTION: roadside falls that flow underneath the old stone railroad bridge. Very picturesque falls, they plunge a few feet before cascading over a few steps to the brook below.
Hi.
ReplyDeleteI went to this waterfall in September 2013. Followed your driving directions. They were very good except for one thing. I was looking for the falls as your directions indicated and I missed it. After a couple of kilometers past an inconsequential bridge, I turned around and at that bridge the falls were now on my left. If you follow the directions look to the right not the left as stated. Nice falls though. Maybe correct the posting if you can.
Thanks
