10 of the Best Waterfalls in Hamilton
"The third highest waterfall in Hamilton, Devil’s Punchbowl definitely makes our list of the best waterfalls in Hamilton. While the waterfall is impressive (see the picture below!), the water doesn’t always flow year round. (Some years it dries up before the fall, other years it’s still flowing.) Also lending to the impressive sight is the colourful layers of rock in the Niagara Escarpment."

The Devil’s Punch Bowl formed at the end of the last ice age when huge meltwater rivers plunged over the escarpment.

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."

10 of the Best Waterfalls in Hamilton
"(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."
