Ontario’s natural landscape is full of hidden gems – and this next outdoor adventure is just that. Hoggs Falls is a lovely waterfall tucked away in a forest, just north of Toronto.
You’ll have to embark on an almost two-hour journey from the city, towards Flesherton, Ontario. It is described as “one of Grey County’s best-kept secrets,” Hoggs Falls flows abundantly all year round, according to South Georgian Bay Tourism.
“The falls are secluded, camouflaged and yet easily accessible.”.
To get there, you’ll have to trek along a scenic hike through the woods along the Boyne river.
