Upper Balls Falls



 


 


 


 

General Information

Located in the Balls Falls Conservation Area, Upper Balls Falls should not be missed. Part of the Twenty Mile Creek, Upper Balls Falls is classified as a plunge formation where the water flows over the side of the gorge and does not touch rock untill it reaches the bottom. The plunge formation is the most common formation of waterfall found in the area.

To access the falls it is just a 10-15 min walk upstream. To get to Upper Balls Falls make sure to use the west side trail. If visited in later summer to fall the water may have dried up, giving you a chance to walk on the river bed. It is best to view these falls in the spring after the snow has melted in order to see them at their best.

WARNING: Safety precautions should be taken whilst visiting Balls Falls. Although there are retaining walls guarding the gorge, you should still be carful when viewing them. While on the trail keep a look out for loose rocks and slippery slopes.
