North River Falls Provincial Park

A 30 m waterfall accessible via a 9 km hike (one way) through the North River valley. The trail starts broad but becomes challenging in the final section, with stream crossings that may have damaged bridges in spring. This hike is for experienced hikers only—the trail has deteriorated significantly and takes 6-8 hours. No cellphone coverage. Access via Oregon Road off the Cabot Trail northeast of Baddeck.
