The glen was developed along the creek running to the east of the castle. When the road was built to connect the house to the Belmont gatehouse, a culvert was created to divert the water beneath the road, resulting in a spectacular waterfall on the south side. A bridge was added to create a trail and a viewing spot for the rapid flowing creek.

The waterfall is situated at the north end of the estate where the creek enters the property. Before the Hatley Park estate was developed, a sawmill on the site took advantage of the waterpower created by this creek. In the dry season, it was said to be equivalent to 20 horsepower and increasing to 40 or 50 horsepower in the wetter seasons.
