Jacob's Ladder is a staircase with 175 steps, quite steep, hence its name. It allows you to wander through the spectacular gorge and appreciate it from different heights.

North River Falls is a breathtaking, powerful cascade on the North River in Nova Scotia’s North River Wilderness Area, dropping about 32 metres into a deep, forested gorge. The water tumbles over layered rock in an impressive single plunge, and is especially powerful after rain or during the spring melt. With no nearby development and dense woods surrounding it, the falls are truly special, and you'll likely spend an hour here taking it all in.

Victoria Park is a 1,000-acre woodland park in the centre of Truro, known for its dramatic gorge carved by Lepper Brook and its two waterfalls, Joseph Howe Falls and Waddell Falls. The park blends natural features with historic elements, including stone stairways, wooden bridges, and viewpoints that date back over a century. Forested ravines, towering hemlocks, and a network of easy-to-moderate trails make it one of Nova Scotia’s most distinctive town parks. It’s a popular place for short walks, longer loops, and exploring the waterfalls and steep-sided gorge that define the lower section.

A small forest river near Fall River that flows through mixed woodland before dropping over Johnson Falls. Along the approach to the falls, the river runs through a shallow, rocky corridor with sections that widen into quieter pools. It’s visible from short side paths near the end of the Johnson Falls Trail, especially where the terrain begins to narrow into the ravine. The river adds a scenic element to the hike, offering brief viewpoints before reaching the waterfall itself.

A modest waterfall tucked into a rocky gorge along the Johnson River near Fall River. The falls are reached by the short forest trail leading from Perrin Drive, with the final approach narrowing as you enter the ravine. The viewing area sits beside exposed rock and flowing water, offering a quiet stop before retracing the trail back out. Suitable as a brief destination for walkers exploring the area.

The water rushes down into the gorge for over 15 metres. It is only fitting that Uisge Bàn can be translated as “white water”, as you can see a lot of it here.

The last 100-200 meters are a bit rocky.
