The waterfall is 26 feet tall and best seen after a good deluge of rain to add some flow to it. Consequently is is usually better seen in the autumn and winter. To reach the waterfall jump off the bike and take the path heading south where this highlight is.

It's not possible to cross the gap here anymore. Have to go up a bit to find a second small bridge.
