The waterfall is 26 feet tall and best seen after a good deluge of rain to add some flow to it. Consequently is is usually better seen in the autumn and winter. To reach the waterfall jump off the bike and take the path heading south where this highlight is.

This park is home to a range of wildlife to spot as well including some grazing cattle! Perfect for a relaxed cycle, the park is a lovely open space to explore.
