This is a long, gentle cascade that falls perhaps 10 m towards Lake Rosseau, which is visible in the distance. Standing on a little one lane bridge and looking downstream you can make a great photograph or take in the beautiful scenery.
Flow can drop quite a bit during summer. If you are hoping to catch a rush of water, it's probably best to vist during spring or late fall.
Special NOTE: The lands on either side of the river are privately owned. Visitors are not allowed nor welcome to wander downstream on the exposed rock. You cannot hike down the stream bed either, because the property maps show that the properties on either side of the river actually meet in the river.
The private nature of this area has been raised many times in our Facebook group, and has been settled. One of the property owners is a member. You may see photos from downstream spots posted online. These were made by trespassing. Please don't do this.
