These falls are just outside of Chester, Nova Scotia near Callender Lake. They are easy to reach and have multiple small drops. No drop is above 10 ft and most are a cascade type. The dense forest surrounding the falls makes it very picturesque.
Important Information – These falls are located just off an old service road. The trail is 2kms in length. Once you have parked on the right-hand side of the road, follow the road on foot. You will come to a fork in the road, continue right. Once you reach the river, they’ll be a small bridge to cross. You can cross the bridge and turn left or turn left before the bridge. There is no path to follow so be sure to follow the river downstream. The falls are located less than a kilometre downstream. If you do decide to cross the river and follow the old service road be sure to head into the woods towards the river before this service road veers to the right as it will take you away from the falls and the river.
