This is our Annual Challenge Walk Event; participants must be ready for at least 6 hours or more on the trail.
Carry extra water, and pack some snack or trail type food but do not overburden yourself.
Good Hiking Boots, Rain gear and walking sticks and a whistle if you have one.


From Sydney follow Hwy 125 to the 105 and take Exit 11 to the Community of North River Bridge and follow the signs to the Provincial Picnic Park at North River Bridge PP.


At this time we are planning to use the North River Trail to the falls, however if the weather conditions continues (rain) we will use the Oregon Road and Trail to the summit that overlooks the water fall.


There will be an exploratory walk or pre-walk event, to the falls on Sunday 19 September to ensure that the trail is passable for our group event.


If you would like to join this first walk please contact me asap as I want to limit the amount to no more then 4 - 6 walkers going on this early walk.
