One of the smallest waterfalls you will find! Found in Bruce Peninsula National Park, this is perhaps only 0.5 m high, and about 10 m wide. Water drains out of Cypress Lake, just metres upstream, and then flows over a wide staircase of layered dolostone rock.
During wetter periods, the whole rock surface floods; at other times, it constricts to the center, leaving dry steps on either side of the falls. The trail around the lake is beautiful and far outweighs the attractiveness of the falls.
