A 20-minute hike (~1.5 km) along a well marked trail will take you to some small but scenic waterfalls. For a more adventurous hike, head upstream from Cameron Falls to the Cameron River Ramparts Waterfalls, a distance of 8 or 9 km. The trail is not well developed, but the river is relatively easy to follow and the route is obvious.
