I had been to Kennedy Dells four years prior, and walked the perimeter of the park on all the trails. However, I did not visit the waterfalls, and took the opportunity to visit the falls on this trip. I was surprised that the water was strongly flowing despite the lack of recent rain. 

I parked at the main parking area in the south of the park, and took the Fitness Trail along the south portion of the park to the east portion of the park, to the White Trail. I then took the short path to the waterfalls, which is really a breached dam but looks like a natural waterfalls. I then took the Blue Trail to the Service Path which I took back to the parking area.
