If you are visiting or passing through the Newfound Lake area, this is a nice sight to stop and see. The waterfall itself is nothing spectacular, as there are only the smallest of plunges and cascades found here, but the well-carved gorge is quite impressive.

Swimming is a locally popular activity at this spot in the summer, but this is only safe in low-water conditions. You might spot people jumping off the gorge walls for a bit of adventure.
