Facebook GroupThis pretty falls is found deep in the Dundas Valley, yet is still easily accessible. It is about 5 m high, and while not a true plunge, is still pretty vertical.
I expect that this falls dries down during the summer, but given the presence of springs all through the valley (groundwater discharge) it probably maintains at least a low flow through the year.
To reach the falls, visitors park in the lot for the Hermitage; the driving directions lead to the entrance. Expect to pay about $10. It's OK, there is more to see around here.
From the parking lot, visitors turn right to continue north on Sulphur Springs Rd. About 250 m down the road, a trail on the left leads to the Homestead Loop Trail. The falls are found at along this short loop trail.
