About this Waterfall
This waterfall is just visible from the crest of the much bigger, more visitable Decew Falls. Water drains out of several small holes constructed into the side of the gorge of the larger falls. I'm not sure of the source of the water, but I assume that it has something to do with the construction of the nearby Decew Hydroelectric Facility (?). Although artificial, the waterfall is interesting to view from the base of the Decew Falls gorge. If you follow the directions to the base of Decew Falls you will pass Faucet Falls on your trip.Some Quick Facts
