This is a reasonably sized waterfall that is very secluded. The hike from the parking area is about 6 km, making it possible to do an an out-and-back, but expect to spend the entire afternoon to do so! Access is by an unammed "road" that continues west from the end of Gargantua Rd, accessible from Hwy 17.
The latter half of the road is in poor shape, and it is recommended that only a jeep or pickup truck go this far in. Visitors would have to walk north along the Coast Trail to find the falls.
Also, I do not know if the coordinates are correct. The waterfall is not visible from aerial photography. You must use caution and research further before visiting. Remember, this web site does not guarantee that directions and locations are exact.
This waterfall is coded yellow because the trail is long and challenging. *This is a challenging waterfall adventure, only suitable for people with experience and gear for backwoods exploration.
