Perfect spot to visit during the week. The walk/hike is about 15mins but the waterfalls is beautiful and you can also walk down to the dam.

Going from the main road up to Bowden Hill is narrow and winding. A nice walk from the parking area through lots of vegetation.

This is in stony hill but the road to get there is quite a journey and really rocky. Once you get there, a lady greets you asking you to pay $500 to get in. She says it's a 10 minutes walk to the river but it's more than that😭Some part of the path is narrow, small and slippery so you have to be careful. Once you get there you are greeted with mosquitos lol, so carry your repellents. The river is cold and refreshing, but as you get closer to the waterfalls it gets deeper up to 8 feet.

It was easy to find once off the main but road is best with 4 wheel drive or high vehicle. Condition of road bad. Then a 10 mins walk to the falls was quite a work out.. but once there it is amazing. Small pool of water, not much swimming can be done. High falls with a lil space to sit or stand under it. $500 to enter. Can take food n drinks or can cook ther..

Visited in June 2020:
Beautiful waterfalls tucked away in the Stony Hill. Nice quiet secluded spot for a relaxing day by the falls. About 5-10minutes hike from the primary school there is a trail with signs so you don’t get lost. Bring repellant!!

When I went I didn’t have to pay but thereafter some men started maintaining the hike trail so they charge $500JMD I believe as a donation.
But it’s really worth it.

Only 4 stars because mosquitoes were out in their numbers

A really nice waterfall in St Andrew. The road is really bad but not long and totally worth it. There's parking outside the primary school and if you take a left from there it's a 15 minute hike to the falls. If you take right, its a 15 minute hike to heritage dam.
The falls are gorgeous, however, if never seen so many mosquitoes in my life, I could swear they were biting under the water too. So definitely bring bug repellent and/ or set a fire to scare them away.

The road going up to the trail entrance is very perilous and steep, but it's absolutely worth it. The hike itself is not difficult at all and a few members of our group in their mid 60s were able to complete it easily. Definitely makes me feel one with nature here, and if you can go during a time when it's not busy it's a treat.
