About Healey Falls

At over a hundred metres in width, Healey Falls is a big one! It can be an absolute monster at high flow. Admittedly, it has been partially compromised by the construction of an equally wide dam right across the top of the falls. But you are free to walk across the dam, which gives great views of the falls below. The Trent River falls probably 10-20 meters, not in one large plunge, but in a rugged series of wide steps. The limestone is thinly bedded yielding hundreds of little steps. The flow gauge is a ways downstream and includes flow from the Crowe River.

Note that this waterfall now has some restrictions for visiting. Hopefully these are temporary, and caused by Covid.
