Waterfall


Tew's Falls, is a 41 metre ribbon waterfall, only a few metres shorter than Niagara Falls is and is the tallest waterfall found in Hamilton, Ontario, Located at the Spencer Gorge-Webster Falls Conservation area its source is Logies Creek. It is a short walking distance away from Webster's Falls.

Best viewed in the springtime as it tends to dry up in the summer months.

A nature trail allows access to the Dundas Peak, which provides stunning views of Dundas and Hamilton. Other pathways passing through the park include the Bruce Trail, and a side-trail to historic Crooks Hollow Conservation Area. Keep well back from the edge of the gorge and escarpment areas, at least a body length.  Adults should keep children and pets well away from these areas. There are hiking trails along the gorge and some amazing picturesque views. I recommend coming here on a weekday because the weekends can be a little crowded. Grab a coffee and take a look, it is really worth your time and effort.
