3.6 km one way
This is usually the first spot that people head to in Willmore Wilderness Park.
It is mostly a moderate hike on a clearly defined trail through lightly forested areas, but there are some challenging hills at the start!
The trail extends for about 2 km over hills and gullies. A trail will then branch off the main trail to the right and is marked by an old moose antler with the words “Eaton Falls” inscribed on it.
(This trail marker is very easy to miss and the trail itself is rather narrow)
Walk for about another 500 meters and you will see and hear Eaton falls.
The falls flow over an enormous rock face from jagged cliffs high above the treetops. A refreshing, cool breeze will greet you as you approach the falls. Many large rocks line the final few meters towards the base of the falls, making for slippery conditions. Use caution.
Directions
Drive to the Sulphur Gates Staging Area. Park and proceed to the large trailhead (southwest corner) at the far end of the parking area. Follow the downhill trail that goes to the right.
