Depending on which way you take in, the visit will be an adventure either way, you could choose the long way in, which I highly recommend. This route requires you to park quite a ways away from the waterfall and take an adventurous hike in. On the way, you will cross the ruins of an old abandoned bridge followed by some rapids and finally I stop at the beautiful Lower Decew Falls.

Once you have enjoyed your time at Lower Decew the hike continues towards Decew Falls, you will soon hear it and see it in the distance. But, before you hit Decew you will pass the man made “Tunnel Falls”, this is a small waterfall made from water that runs from a pipe in the escarpment running from the nearby hydroelectric plant.

Finally you will have reached Decew Falls, a gorgeous 72 foot high waterfall that drops into a beautiful turquoise pool. Surrounded by nothing but water, rocks and nature, Decew Falls is an excellent place to visit and escape the city.

Should you choose the shorter route, you can park at the Morningstar Mill at the top of the waterfall and look for the yellow rope tied off to a tree that you can use for support to lower yourself down and into the gorge.

I made my visit on a weekday and had the entire site to myself the entire time, crowding has been an issue in the recent few years, so if you do visit please be respectful of others, don’t litter and help keep this natural oasis open for everyone to enjoy!
