Facebook GroupMany people that visit the bigger falls upstream (and right along the highway) are unaware that another falls is located just downstream. The lower falls is smaller and not as spectacular, yet nevertheless is worth the short detour. The river spills over a chaotic rocky mass, creating an ever changing pattern of little falls and cascades. This differs dramatically from the upper falls.
You can get a view of the falls from the parking area and by looking downstream from footbridge over the river. The footbridge is found on a trail from the parking area (looking upstream, walk a bit to the right to find the trail). There may also now be a dead-end path through the woods that leads closer to the falls.
