About High Falls on Pigeon

Easily one of the highlights of the Thunder Bay area. If you are visiting earlier in the season when river levels are still high, don't miss the 40 min drive south of the city to see this one. Park in the Welcome Centre for Ontario (this is right across the border from Minnesota). Follow the signs to find the falls. You will have to follow a trail that walks back north in a shallow gully beside the highway. Cross under the road via the tunnel, and then keep left. There are two trails to the top. The one to the left gives you more views of the river on the way.

The Waterfalls of Ontario Project

Since 1999, 'Waterfalls of Ontario' (and its predecessor) has served as a free online resource for the Ontario waterfalling community. With grassroots input from people like YOU, together we have introduced thousands of people to the joy of waterfalling!

This was the first web site in Ontario to inventory and map waterfalls for visiting. (See archives from 2003 , 2012 and 2018).
