The top 5 waterfalls to visit in Hamilton
"You'll have to do a bit of a hike from the parking lot to get to this tiered waterfall, but it's totally worth it. Not only is it scenic, but the falls are sublime. Descending from a height of 17 metres, the flowing curtain peeks out of the woods as you approach alongside Ancaster Creek."

10 of the Best Waterfalls in Hamilton
"Sherman Falls is actually located on private property but is open for the public to view. The water flows year round and is spectacular to see in the winter when the falls freeze over. The waterfall can be seen from the road, but is more impressive when you walk closer."

The Ultimate Guide to the Best Waterfalls in Hamilton
"Albion Falls is easily one of the most spectacular waterfalls in Hamilton, rippling over the Niagara Escarpment in Red Hill Valley. This incredible cascade waterfall you won’t soon forget stands 18 metres wide and 19 metres tall with the water tumbling over rock that’s transformed into steps and shelves over time. Although there’s no access to the bottom, Albion Falls is visible from two viewing platforms, so you can admire the gorgeous waterfall while being surrounded by lush greenery."

"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"

Top 10 Hamilton Waterfalls
"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."

"Crumbuns is best in class across pretty much every category: inventiveness, variety, quality, service, and value. You can’t go wrong with one of their namesake crumbuns (like coffee cake, but good), empire cookies, or pizza rolls, but their home run is the mini cheesecakes. A rotating mix, they all have an incredible crust, sweet cheesecake base, and unique flavours."
