If you had continued on the path, you would reach the top of the falls but you really don't see anything but the ledge. You'll have to maneuver around large boulders to get your shots. Once you see the falls there is a path down to your left. Getting up isn't too bad but be careful coming back down. You'll notice a steep short path into the woods.
