This Ontario hiking trail has a platform with views of fall hues spread across a steep bedrock gorge

Get ready for the most scenic fall views this October. Ontario transforms in the fall and if you’re looking to feast your eyes on gorgeous landscapes, look no further than Devil’s Glen Provincial Park Loop Trail. Its viewing platform offers out-of-this-world views of surrounding fall foliage.

Head to Clearview Township and embark along its popular hiking destination. Devil’s Glen Provincial Park Loop Trail. It’s located within a non-operating park.

According to South Georgian Bay, the loop trail is available year-round and has access to the Bruce Trail.

About the trail

“Devil’s Glen rests on the Manitoulin Bedrock Ledge, the site of a glacial meltwater channel that flowed along the edge of the escarpment,” shares the site.

“The gorge, carved by the Mad River spreads as far as your eye can see. The upper rim along the gorge is lined by Silurian Amabel dolomite cap rock, a form of limestone.”

Though the journey is truly rewarding with scenic fall views, you can bask in its beauty via the platform before embarking on the trail.

You’ll want to snap some pics!

Enjoy the scenic views of the entire valley, and see as the fall colours take over the lower walls of the Niagara Escarpment, per the OTC.

According to the Southern Georgian Bay website, it’s about 9.8 km long and is considered a moderate trail. Wear comfortable shoes and get ready for an adventure worth your while.
