Uisage Ban Falls Provincial Park, Provincial park in Victoria County, Nova Scotia, Canada
Uisage Ban Falls Provincial Park is a nature reserve in Victoria County, Nova Scotia, featuring a 16-meter waterfall within a steep granite gorge. The waterfall is surrounded by forests of sugar maple, yellow birch, and spruce trees.
The trail network was developed through collaboration between the Nova Scotia Forest Technicians Association and local organizations starting in the early 1900s. Photographic records document the area during this period.
The name comes from the Gaelic language and means 'white water', reflecting the Scottish heritage of the settlers who came to Cape Breton. This linguistic connection shows how deeply Celtic traditions shaped the region.
The area is located about 14 kilometers north of Baddeck and operates from May through October. Free entry and parking are available along with picnic tables and restroom facilities.
The park offers two distinct hiking paths that each reveal different aspects of the landscape. One leads directly to the waterfall while the other follows the river valley below.
