Facebook GroupA small, but photogenic falls located along the French Falls Trail, about 400 m south of the Trans-Canada Highway. The trailhead heads south from the highway, right across from the end of Camp 111 Rd. The trail is called Camp 111 Trail.
The trail heads south for about 400 m and then turn left on the French Falls Trail. After about 500 m, the trail bends around to the right and then continues another 500 m or so to the falls. I have not seen this site posted to the Facebook Group. Photos on google maps suggest that this is photogenic and not too difficult to find. Not far after the falls, the trail loops back to the Camp 111 Trail.
This waterfall is coded yellow because I do not have any information about the trail conditions. It should not be any more difficult than any other modest-lenght trail. For example, the Camp 111 trail can be traced on aerial photography, though the French Falls trail cannot.
The parking directions are for roadside parking on Camp 111 Rd. I believe that this is permitted, but please heed any signs that say otherwise. Remember that even though this is near the Trans-Canada Highway, wandering off in the wrong direction could easily get you lost.
