Beatson Falls And Hollow Waterfalls
Walk straight to the left, slightly 3 miles from the fork of the trail, along the way, you will be spoiled by the sound of water streams that flow beautifully for miles and miles all the way to Hollow Falls to the basin of Beatson Falls.
Enjoy the feeling of walking on the basalt lava rock field. But some of the fields has wet and muddy dirt as I mentioned above because of seasonal vernal.
Bellow are some pictures and video to visualizing the charm of North Table Mountain Ecological Reserve.

Ravine Falls And Phantom Falls
Walk to the right from the fork of the trail will lead you to the most spectacular terrain of waterfalls, nearly 40 feet of water drop.
It was a little bit of a disappointment because there wasn't any waterfall to view and see that beauty. It was just wrong timing.
But other beauty is still there, especially looking over to the field of yellow wild flowers.
Bellow is the image of Ravine Falls, the mesmerizing waterfall before you get to the destination of Phantom Falls.
Enjoy a short movie from the whole trip of the hike.
Glorious indeed, every single place was uniquely eye-catching. The 6.5 miles of hike won't displeased you, recommended place to explore.
Make sure to go during May-April to see the waterfalls and enjoy the colorful of wild flowers.
