Description

Added by Chris Martin

This is a great hike with both very groomed trails and off the beaten path trails. It all leads to a very nice waterfall that has a fire pit that is tended to all year.

Explore the trails in Hilton Falls and you will come across stunning water features like the falls, the rivers, and the reservoir. You’ll also find history here when you see the old Mill Ruins. Hilton Falls is an outdoors experience conveniently located near the 401. Breathe in fresh air, and work-out here whether it is hiking the trails, mountain biking, or trail running. You will feel recharged after a walk in the forest.

The hikes takes you to a breathtaking, panoramic view of the Niagara Escarpment that is blazed with fall colors.

Continuting the the far left of the propery, you will find a charming stream (where I cooled my feet), and then the monuments of the old kil...

Photograph Great Falls

The perfect little adventure in the city of Hamilton, this waterfall is along the iconic Bruce Trail and can easily be turned into a longer adventure along the Grindstone Creek.

There is an easy access point if you park at the end of Bond Street North in D...
