From Wawa, go south on Hwy 17 to Michipicoten River Village Rd. Turn right. Turn right at the next main road and follow the bend to the left. You will pass over a bridge - Wawa Falls and Silver Falls are here. Continue along the road for 4 km to Sandy Beach. Continue for another 3 km to a road intersection with a creek. The waterfall is on the right side, tucked in the woods, just barely visible from the road. If you turn off your car, you should be able to hear the falls.

A nice little waterfall that may just dry up in summer. I've only been here once (in October) when the falls was flowing well. This is a narrow cascade, probably 3 m in height and half as wide. There isn't a lot to do here - the woods upstream of the falls are thick, rocky and steep, and I have absolutely no idea what lies beyond. Downstream of the falls, there is an open area betwen the falls and the road.

If anyone visits this falls, or knows of a local name, please let me know!
