Description: The Upper Falls of three, Devil’s Hill Falls, a waterfall on Devils Hill on Cape Breton Island, in Nova Scotia, Canada. The waterfall consists of two Classical Ledge Waterfalls, Upper and Lowe, with an intermediate cascade lying between. Oral tradition suggests that Devil's Hill Road, the road that runs along the side of the stream that becomes the falls, was named because a gentleman met the Devil on his way home from Mira Ferry one night after a dance in the late 19th century. There were quite a few farms along the road that went to the Mira, a few of them owned by German families.
