Our Responsibility
Waterfalls get closed when people are injured or ruin lands.

Please don't trespass, don't litter, and stay on the trail.
Warning: Waterfalls are dangerous - You aren't permitted to use this site unless you read, understand and accept the Website Disclaimer

At over a hundred metres in width, Healey Falls is a big one! It can be a real force at high flow. It can also be a real disappointment at other times, when the majority of the flow is sent for hydroelectric power. A dam runs across the top of the falls and visitors are are free to walk across it to get a panoramic top-down view.

I now park on the country road on the other side of County Rd 50. If you choose to cross the regional road, you do so at your own risk. Once on the other side, hike down the easy gravel laneway for about 5 minutes to the falls. There is a home on the right side of the road. Please stay on the access road and do not trespass on their private property.

This waterfall is featured in the 'Waterfalls of Ontario' book. Please pick up a copy to learn more. This helps to support this project.

Waterfalls of Ontario Project

This project has been online since 1999, in print since 2003, and on social since 2011. (See archives: 2003, 2012, 2018). It was the first to inventory and map Ontario's waterfalls for recreational purposes. With your continued help, it grows. Learn more...
