Tucked quietly into the west mountain brow right beside the Chedoke Radial Trail, Westcliff Falls feels like a forgotten urban sanctuary. While hundreds of people pass by the top of it every day along the city's edge, very few realize they are walking right past an 18-meter (60-foot) natural masterpiece. This is a dynamic, complex ribbon cascade where the creek snakes through a steep, narrow limestone ravine before plunging over the escarpment cliff. What makes Westcliff so unique is its architectural backdrop—the city's historic metal stairs cut right alongside the escarpment framework here, allowing you to climb parallel to the path of the water.
