Facebook GroupThere are several very small falls along the river, and none of them are overly exciting on their own. During winter/spring 2016 this site suddenly received lots of attention on the Waterfalls of Ontario Facebook group. Maybe because it's so close to the GTA?
One of the falls is just under the road bridge. The bridge used to be lined by old rounded stones and boulders, but it has been recently updated with masonry. It still looks good, even if it doesn't have the former's charm.
A second, wide, but very low ledge-type falls is found immediately upstream from the road. Yet another is found just upstream, just out of sight past the first bend in the creek. Trails lead upstream and downstream for some distance. Even though the falls are really quite small, this is a great place to hike and explore.
Parking is on-street only. The road is not busy, but use caution if you choose to park here.
