"Going out for pizza is a guaranteed hit for most kids, and this casual spot is no exception. While there are classic cheese pizza or pasta options available for kids, the menu has plenty of variety if you’re looking to try something new. Most say it is the best pizza you can eat in Hamilton, and while the kids probably won’t notice the difference, you sure will."
"If you love pizza, there’s no doubt you’ll love Chicago Style Pizza Shack in Hamilton. They’ve got deep dish pizza (a style originating from Chicago), stuffed with all kinds of incredible ingredients. You’ll also find all kinds of other delicious Italian eats like pastas and bruschettas."
"Nicknamed Canada's "fightingest ship" for its record of sinking the most enemy tonnage in WW2, HMCS Haida is another waterfront tourist attraction to add to your Hamilton travel itinerary. Built in Newcastle-upon-Tyne in Britain and launched in 1943, this historic destroyer is easily accessed from her berth at Hamilton's Pier 9. Designated a National Historic Site, this well-preserved museum ship is fun to explore for all ages."
"DescriptionHMCS Haida is a Tribal-class destroyer that served in the Royal Canadian Navy from 1943 to 1963, participating in World War II and the Korean War. She was named for the Haida people. Phone: +1 905-526-6742Web: https://www.pc.gc.ca"
"While you are at the waterfront, head over to the HMCS Haida. This floating museum highlights Canada’s wartime naval history. The HMCS Haida was launched in August 1942 and served in World War II, the Korean Conflict, and the Cold War."
"After visiting Webster Falls, the tallest ribbon waterfall in Hamilton is just minutes away. At the height of 41 metres, Tew Falls is at the beginning of a hike towards the Dundas Peak, famed for its beautiful valley views. Pay for parking once at Christie Lake Conservation Area for Webster Falls and take the same shuttle to visit Tew Falls."
"Note: Spencer Gorge—which includes Webster Falls, Tew Falls and Dundas Peak—will remain closed until September 2020 due to COVID-19. Webster’s Falls is not the tallest, but is the largest falls around, and is super, super pretty!. The scenery is enhanced by the bridge over Spencer’s Creek right before the cascade of water."
"(Or maybe it only seems like a hidden gem because we’re from the other end of the city?) Either way, it’s a waterfall that’s not to be missed!. Located in Waterdown, it’s an impressive waterfall, whether you view it from the lookout platform, or take the trail down and view the waterfall from below. The path continues along the creek for awhile and is part of the Bruce Trail."
"And I’m not picking favourites here, but I’ve saved one of the best for last. The Smokey Hollow Waterfall is one of most easily accessible Hamilton waterfalls. Technically, this waterfall is in the town of Waterdown, between Dundas and Burlington."
"As with Albion Falls, there is no access to the falls from below, however Buttermilk Falls can be seen from the Bruce Trail. To reach Buttermilk Falls, park at Oak Knoll Park and walk a short distance along the Bruce Trail side trail (there is a map at the edge of the parking lot). Alternatively, Buttermilk Falls is only a short walk from Albion Falls, along either a paved trail that follows the road or along the Bruce Trail side trail (which has amazing views of the Red Hill Valley).Type: RibbonHeight: 23 metres (75 feet)Cost: Free"
"Buttermilk Falls could be considered a hidden gem but it’s far from hidden as it sits under a bridge on Mountain Brow Blvd near Limeridge Rd on the East mountain. It is more correct to say it is just overshadowed by the more popular Albion Falls which is less than 1 minute up the road by car. Buttermilk Falls is approximately 75 feet high (23 metres) and runs almost year round."
"Continuing to head west, we had to make a stop for one of the most popular waterfalls in the whole area: Albion Falls. Honestly, it did not disappoint. This massive waterfall (seen from a distance if you park where we did) is made up of many little “steps” and layers so the water cascades down and down into the pool below."
