Old Man River Falls is a great find. Once you've found the trailhead (it's easy to drive by without noticing), it's an easy hike down to the base of the falls. By keeping to the right on local trails, visitors eventually find their way to the falls after just a few minutes of hiking.
There is limited parking at this site; a few spots are found along the side of the road. Traffic is light, but anyone choosing to park here would have to use caution.
This waterfall is featured in the 'Waterfalls of Ontario' book. Please pick up a copy to learn more. This helps to support this project.
