This waterfall is well worth the effort to view, and it will take a bit of effort. It will take a lot of effort get a really good view, however.

Beaver Creek, really a river in the spring, flows under a railroad bridge then immediately takes a plunge of at least 60 feet straight down into the valley bottom. It is not easy to get to this bridge/waterfall as this section of the valley is isolated and vertical. One can go about it from either the east or the west, but the recommended path is to take Falls Road east off the Highway in Beaver Falls, follow it to the end and talk to the gentleman in whose yard one will be at that time. He has a path leading down to the bridge/waterfall and will even show you a picture of the falls, to whet your appetite.

On the path down to the falls one will notice an almost vertical path/slide going down to the creek. The author chose not to try it, but the young and adventuresome (read foolish) may give it a try if they feel they really need to view from the bottom.
