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

This is a very, very small bedrock bump below a water control dam. As with many dams, this one was sited at a narrower stretch of river, using bedrock as both a construction base as well as a natural 'starting point' to control water levels.

At higher flow, there is likely some whitewater; at lower flows, you can see some rock and a dam. Nothing to get excited about, but if you are a falling water fan, it may be worth a quick look. I have not visited. Located at the end of Black Fly Access Road.

This site is coded yellow because I have not visited and cannot confirm the conditions. You must use caution around dams as they can be dangerous.

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...
