If you’re looking for an exciting fall adventure that offers a mix of natural beauty and historical facts, you’ve come to the right place. Ancaster Ontario is next on our list, a place with deep roots that date back centuries, and is home to a very popular waterfall. Here’s what to know.
Located within the Golden Horseshoe area, about an hour and a half away from Toronto is Ancaster.
According to Tourism Hamilton, this town dates back to 1793 and is considered one of the oldest towns in Ontario and once the largest industrial centre in all of Canada.
“Its wealth is still visible today with gorgeous historical architecture and a small, but dynamic, downtown,” shares the site.
You can explore all the local gems in the area including shops, restaurants, historic buildings, and more.
