YANA'S WANDERLUST

This stunning waterfall is hidden in a cozy forest in Middle Sackville, Nova Scotia. The Webber Lake Falls are gorgeous and easy to get to. We visited twice during the wintertime, and it was amazing. The trail through the forest, covered in snow, was charming and very comfortable to walk through.

At the top of the Webber Lake Falls

A short walk by the water leads to this lovely gem. You get to the top first and can enjoy the waterfall from above. It’s a magical experience seeing water breaking the ice and carving its path to continue the journey to Webber Lake. The view is lovely from here, but it’s about to get better!

At the base of the Webber Lake Falls

After getting down the small hill, there are many spots to enjoy the views of the waterfall. It looks gorgeous from every perspective.

The frozen beauty of Webber Lake Falls could come in different shapes and forms. We were rewarded with cute animal ice figurines carved by the strength of water (see the photos above). 

How to get to the Webber Lake Falls

There’s a decent parking place by Margerson Drive. Park your car there, then take the Service Road until you see a marked entrance in the forest. The trail is well-marked from here to the Falls.

About the Webber Lake Falls Trail

• Distance to the waterfall from the parking spot – around 1 km.
• Difficulty – easy
• Hiking time – approximately 10 min one-way to the waterfall, 25 min loop trail.

The trail is easy, short, and beautiful in winter but could be muddy when the snow melts and after the rain.

Sometimes, the journey is even more joyful than the destination. It is one of these cases. Walking through this gorgeous, serene forest was absolutely amazing, and I loved it even more than the waterfall it led to.
It was freezing cold outside, but it got warm and comfortable as soon as we entered the forest.

You can hike the whole Webber Lake Falls Trail loop to enjoy the waterfall and the lake, but you’ll need to cross the water stream and get your feet wet. This might be different in the dry season. The other options are to use a bridge (structure in photo 4, not far after the marked forest entrance) or to come back to the parking lot and walk in a different direction to get to the lake.
