There are five caves to explore, a viewpoint overlooking a waterfall, and a viewing platform providing a great view of the Resurgence Cave entrance (where the river flows out of the cave and back to the surface) - not to be missed! Remember to take two sources of light, watch your footing, and mind your head on some of the low cave ceilings.

  • Driving Directions:From Gold River, head west towards Tahsis. Turn onto the Head Bay Forest Servive Road(gravel)for approximately 14.5 kms. Turn right on to Branch H-27, and park on the right just before the bridge. The trailhead is on the other side of the bridge. Roughly 25 minutes from Gold River. On the way home, stop at the Cala Creek pullout and enjoy the waterfalls.
