Not far from Lake Ainslie, the largest fresh water lake in all of Cape Breton. Lies Egypt Falls, or Piper’s Glen as you may find in some guide books. The trail leading down to the falls is only 15 minutes, descending downhill through a stand of mixed hardwoods. The last five minutes forces you to ascend the steep walls of the gorge, revealing a beautiful waterfall. A great spot to have a swim, relax in nature with a picnic and some good company. The climb back to the top is steep and will get your heart pumping.
