Congdon Park, established in 1908, protects a mile long gorge carved out by Tischer Creek. There are a number of small falls along the creek of various sizes and shapes. A trail follows the creek through the gorge, and there is also a trail along the rim. This is an urban park, but the gorge still has a rugged feel, despite being surrounded by roads and houses.
The waterfalls are located between Superior Street and 4th Street. I would recommend starting at Superior Street and walking up the gorge trail. There is no dedicated parking area for Congdon Park, but there is street parking on Superior Street.
[North Shore] Nearby Falls
Nearby Lester Park also contains a set of small waterfalls. If you head north on Highway 61 you will find a bunch of waterfalls, starting with Goose Berry Falls, Beaver River Falls, Baptism High Falls, Illgen Falls, plus many more. Wisconsin's Big Manitou Falls is about 20 miles to the south.
