Third Vault Falls drops about 16 meters, making it the tallest waterfall in Fundy National Park. The round-trip trail is about 7.4 km. The first part is a gentle forest path. The final stretch descends steeply into the gorge, where the waterfall pours down the rock face in a cloud of mist. The full hike takes about 2.5 to 3 hours and is of moderate difficulty. The return involves an uphill climb, so wear non-slip shoes and bring plenty of water. The falls are most spectacular after rain, when water flow is abundant. In late summer the flow may be lower.
