Smokey Hollow Waterfall, Waterdown Ontario: Exploring Ontario's Waterfalls: Episode #2:

Exploring Ontario's Waterfalls: Episode #2: Smokey Hollow Waterfall, Waterdown Ontario Welcome to Episode #2 of my new series "Exploring Ontario's Waterfalls" Smokey Hollow Falls, also known as Grindstone Falls, Waterdown Falls or Great Falls is a beautiful ribbon waterfall in a leafy forest setting that flows from Grindstone Creek in Waterdown. At 10 metres tall, this isn’t the area’s biggest waterfall, but this short and fast-flowing waterfall is surrounded by a great section of the Bruce Trail. It has a rugged footpath tracing its way up and down the ravine formed by Niagara Escarpment. Check out the photo gallery: https://freaktography.com/smokey-holl... Once used to power a local sawmill, the falls are now the centre of beautifully rehabilitated park land.

By the turn of the century, power from grindstone creek was used to run several mills and foundries Some operations were also steam powered and as the valley became thick with industrial smoke, the area was nicknamed smokey hollow. Mill production at the site ceased in 1912 Today, the site is a popular destination for locals to flock to for photographs or a relaxing visit.
