Facebook GroupPrincess Falls is best viewed from Hwy 403. Unfortunately, this gives travellers about 3 seconds to look at it. While the Chedoke Radial Trail takes you right above the crest of the falls, there is essentially no view of the falls to be had. It's as vertical plunge falls, and you are prevented from looking over the top due to a necessary safety fence. It is what it is.
This waterfall is coded yellow to warn you that it is almost impossible to view, even though you can almost walk right to the crest (and stay behind the fence!).
