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 isn't much of a destination, as you are only able to view a very small cascade in the distance from the road bridge. A Facebook group member told me that a house was recently built right near the falls, cutting off access. I don't know if visitors used to be able to visit the falls by land, but they can't now.

The view upstream is still pretty and worth a pit-stop on the little bridge. A smaller rapids is found downstream of the bridge. Either way, don't expect much of a waterfall adventure at this site. NOTE: This site is flagged as yellow to warn you that you can't get close to it. It is a roadside view only.

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...
