Follow the directions to Rockway Falls. From the parking lot, you could walk east (away from Rockway Falls) to the little creek that flows under the road. The falls is on this creek, about 100 m into the bush. This is a difficult route to follow, so it's probably best to follow the directions given in the description below.

This tiny waterfall is found immediately east of the much larger and more spectacular Rockway Falls. It is located on a small creek only a few hundred meters to the east of Rockway, about 100 m downstream from the road. Even though it is fairly close to the road, the falls is extremely difficult to visit, due to the heavy brush, and rugged, broken bedrock lining the river bed above the falls. The falls is about 3 m high, but is dry for most of the year.

The best way to reach the waterfall is by walking along the trail at Rockway falls down the Niagara Escarpment. Towards the bottom of the hill, turn right and walk through the woods to the small creek. Walk upstream until you reach the creek. This is not a big waterfall by any means, but probably gives a pretty, secluded picture during the short time of the year that the creek is flowing.
