Luskville Falls

Highlight • Waterfall

Luskville Falls has a flow rate that fluctuates with the seasons. In spring, the snowmelt gives it great force. In autumn, it is the rains that give it strength. In summer, it is reduced to a trickle.

This former fire detection tower lost its function with the advent of aerial surveillance. Radar, a wind turbine, and solar panels were subsequently installed. A great hiking destination for those who enjoy elevation gain.
