Myles Doyle Falls

Quieter Highlands waterfall — short hike through hardwood forest to a ledge-cascade, best in spring or after summer rain.

A waterfall in the Cape Breton Highlands with a short but unmarked trail that requires some rock-scrambling to reach. The cascade flows over ledges through hardwood forest and runs strongest in spring and after rain, thinning by late August. Wear sturdy footwear, bring water, and pack out what you bring in — there are no facilities.
