These falls are on private land but they are not posted, from route 30 coming from Blenheim, take a right onto Clauverwie Rd. Follow the road 1-2 miles up through very sharp turns. When you see the cemetery on your left you're just about there across from the cemetery is a small pull off and across from the end of the cemetery is a path through a field leading into the woods. The trail gets quite steep and someone has been kind enough to put rope between the trees to help on the way down and up. There is also rope to help you down the rock steps to the falls. Thanks to the flood in 2011 the trail is a bit narrow and washed out as you get closer to the water so exercise caution.

Nice one. Thanks, will add this when I get caught up.

This is a a great find! Looks very much like a scene from watkins glen. Is that all there is to the gorge there?
