Facebook GroupA very low, set of shallow wide steps across the mighty Madawaska River. The biggest fall is less than half a metre. Even I have a hard time calling this a falls! But the site is beautiful, if you can reach it.
The Crown Land Atlas says that this falls is s surrounded by a patch of the Lower Madawaska River Provincial Park. Unfortunately, there is no easy access by land, as there is a private residence right where access might otherwise have occurred.
You can get a distant view of the site from Highland Creek Rd, although the falls are still about 300 m further upstream from the point where the road meets the river. Alternatively, it would be a short paddle. Remember, this web site does not give you permission to trespass.
This waterfall is coded yellow just to warn you that you may not be able to see it up close without a boat.
