A series of 21 cascades and natural pools along the Mayfield River in the hills above Westmoreland. The guide-led river walk passes through dense tropical vegetation, and visitors swim through each pool between the falls. Quieter and more intimate than Dunn's River Falls; very popular with local Jamaican visitors as well as tourists. Note there are two competing operators — "Original Mayfield Falls" is the main site.
