Great Falls
A picturesque 33 ft waterfall in Waterdown with a viewing platform. Can be quite striking in winter after it has frozen. This is also the location of the former industrial community of Smokey Hollow, remnants of which can be found around the site.
Several moderate loops for hiking provide scenic lookouts from the Niagara Escarpment, and connect to the Bruce Trail. Crevices and old growth cedar trees define the top of the cliff. Reservations are required.
