The 16 m (50 ft.) high waterfall is accessible by trail.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 Lands Profiles - Uisge Ban Falls Provincial Park )〕 ==The Trails== The Falls Trail is approximately 3.0 kilometres (1.8 miles) in length and requires about one hour to complete. The trail passes through a field then follows Falls Brook upstream through a mixed forest and then a climax hardwood forest composed largely of maple, birch, and beech. The deep stream valley narrows dramatically in the vicinity of Easach Ban Waterfall. At the falls, the sheer walls of the gorge tower 150 metres (500 feet) on either side. Another trail in the park, The River Trail proceeds north from Falls Brook. It is about 3.0 kilometres (1.8 miles) in length (return) and requires about one hour to travel. Following along the banks of the North Branch Baddeck River, the trail winds through a climax sugar maple, yellow birch, beech forest at the foot of the river valley’s steep slope. The original trail was developed with assistance from the Nova Scotia Forest Technicians Association. Recent improvements were undertaken by Stora Enso and the Nova Scotia Department of Natural Resources. This provincial park trail is well maintained and has interpretive signs and a map at the trail head. There are pit toilets and picnic tables in the parking area.〔 (【引用サイトリンク】 Info on Parks A - Z - Usige Bàn Falls ) 〕 The park is open for day use (from dawn to dusk), from Victoria Day weekend in May - until the Thanksgiving weekend in October.〔 (【引用サイトリンク】 Info on Parks A - Z - Seasons and Fees ) 〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Uisge Ban Falls Provincial Park」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
