Phantom Falls

Within the North Table Mountain Ecological Reserve, Phantom Falls is a 166 ft seasonal waterfall. While there is no official trail down to the falls, a parking lot 2 miles away allows straight-forward access. At the bottom of the falls you can opften find Coastal Range Newts, a local subspecies. The fun doesn't stop there! In a grotto behind the falls you can find an old mineshaft that is still used for scientific purposes today. Entering the shaft is allowed but beware as it can be a strenuous and dangerous task.
