Public Transportation
From Scarborough, take a taxi or a maxi taxi heading towards Moriah. Ask the driver to drop you off at the junction to Highland Waterfalls. The fare will typically be around $5 to $10 TTD. From the junction, you will need to walk approximately 15-20 minutes along a somewhat rough path to reach the waterfall. Make sure to wear comfortable shoes as the terrain can be uneven.
