Pond Falls is a Terraced Ribbon Waterfall
with three vertical drop sections. It measures 16 metres
(52 feet) in height and 3 metres (10 feet) in crest width. It
experiences impressive flow during seasonal rainfalls and after
the snow melt.
History
Pond Falls was "discovered" by David Wootton in 2007. Joe Hollick
has an interesting note to make about waterfalls in this area:
Twice when I was out along the Bruce
Trail photographing the waterfalls between McNeilly Rd. to
east of Fifty Rd. (Hamilton's eastern boundary), I was out
for five hours and I did not see any other people. This is
a deserted area, even though it is the Bruce Trail and it
is a good idea to bring some water and a cell phone. The last
time I was there in winter, it was slow going through the snow,
and after about four hours this hawk began circling me
waiting for me to drop.
Pond Falls is
located roughly halfway between McNeilly Road and Fifty Road
in Hamilton's far east end. Situated above the Bruce Trail, it
can be seen from the Trail.
