Waterdown Falls, Ontario
The Grindstone Creek which flows through Waterdown, Ontario formerly powered a number of foundries and mill, and the resulting smoke gave the area the name Smoky Hollow. The Waterdown Falls over this creek is a very accessible waterfall and a pleasure to visit. You can reach it by going south on Mill St. in Waterdown, from the Highway 5 interesection (Dundas St.) As you go down a hill to the left, you will see the small parking lot on your right.
