About Labrador Falls

This is a good size waterfall when it's flowing well! When stream levels drop in summer, the whole thing gets confined into a narrow slot eroded into face of the falls, as shown in Amii's photo. The slot was probably formed due to erosion along a joint, or, by differential erosion of a dike formed by a weaker intruded rock. Of the waterfalls around Manitouadge, this is one of the tougher ones to reach. It requires a 6 km "drive" along a rough "road". SUV or better, and unless conditions are perfect, you probably want a jeep or truck. The last portion is a 2 hour hike. More detailed directions are coming. Let me know if you can help!

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).

The book 'Waterfalls of Ontario' was published by Firefly Books (© 2003, 2011, 2018, 2022) and has sold tens of thousands of copies. It was the first published resource to present an inventory of hundreds of waterfalls in Ontario that can be visited.
