    Tips

    December 14, 2025

    North River Falls Trail is a moderate out-and-back route that winds through forest in Nova Scotia’s North River Wilderness Area, leading to the base of the province’s tallest waterfall. The trail closely follows the river in some areas, with uneven footing and muddy sections that make it feel remote and rugged rather than a well-maintained path. Reaching the lookout at the falls is rewarding, especially as the sound and scale of the cascade build steadily as you get closer.
