Our Responsibility

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 great site to visit. There are a number of small to medium sized falls spread over an 800 m long stretch of the Current River. Nothing too big, but lots of photo opportunities and loads of exploring to do. Bare bedrock is exposed along both sides of the river.

During lower flow, this area is quite wide and carefful visitors have used the exposed rock to get around the falls. But remember that wet, smooth rocks can be extremely slippery. Anyone visiting must stay back from the river's edge.

This waterfall is featured in the 'Waterfalls of Ontario' book. Please pick up a copy to learn more. This helps to support this project.

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...
