Great hiking trails. Many areas to walk through. Shaded areas if you don’t want the sun on a hot day. Or there’s trails to walk with sun. Beautiful scenery. Love taking my dogs. There’s a paved trail all the way pass the golf course. Reaching green hill road of the highway. Although it goes all the way there plus. It do not seem like it is, as it’s very nice with huge trees and busy greens. You can hear the nature sounds. Only sometimes you can hear some loud trucks 😁 Love the water. If you get a change to visit the rivers and the ambiance of what it causes while hiking. A couple steep hills. Depending on what side of the trails you take. Some parts of the river it’s not very deep! on a hot sunny day one can go in and enjoy. So many areas to visit when going to Albion Falls. The falls are just amazing. It used to be a very nice place to go down and visit and sit down and enjoy the water at the falls area part, now it has been blocked off because of people and their stupidity. However You can still see it and take photos. It’s know for its beautiful sounds and water flow along with the ambiance of sceneries. There’s free parking along 3 areas in the designated parking areas. Albion Falls is free to go in there is no tickets required.

Please beware that the access to Albion Falls is closed by the city. There is only a hiking trail available but that does not lead to the Falls. When we asked the reps available for guidance they said that any who is caught going down will be charged $100 per person and $10,000 if they need to come rescue. Multiple sign are available to advise people of these restriction. This has been so since 2017 after multiple injuries and two deaths in the past. The trail has two options, one that goes near the edge of the cliff and the other is a bit safer path. Nice to walk on the safer path of your with little children. The falls can be seen but it's not as appealing as it may have been once when you could go closer. There is parking available at the sight for easy access and a quick stop parking to view the falls. Please see the attached pictures.

This was a spur of the moment thing. Unfortunately for myself it rained last night so the few spots I could find getting down, were wet. So, I could have made it down but I couldnt have made it back up safely. I just had some kswiss sneakers on and they are slippery. There is quite a bit of poison ivy, I'm pretty allergic so I tried my best to stay away from it but I may have hit a couple going down in one spot....so we shall see. I would have loved to have made it to the bottom of the Falls. It is so beautiful from the top of it. If you attempt it be careful and make sure you have some hiking gear and good shoes. I would say older kids could make it down. Elementary school age could as long as they are use to that kind of stimulation. It would be hell for a child that is always on video games and "never" goes outside. (My kid) 🤣

It was a gorgeous sunny day at beginning of July 2022, only a high of around 20°... though amazing how hotter it can feel when in the sunlight long enough!. Decided to walk the Redhill Trail from Barton St. up to Albion Fall's and back again... and was so glad I did. When I reached the fall's, it was somewhat busy (being on a Saturday) but got a really good view of it and it was flowing surprisingly well too. There's a decent size parking lot close by, and another one that's just a few min's further East - both are free. There are a few good lookout points in the area, to see the fall's. Of the numbers of beautiful water fall's that run off the entire length of the Niagara Escarpment, I'd highly recommend checking it out... for anyone who truly has an appreciation for that sort of thing.👍😊

It certainly is worth the drive to Albion Park wherein I and my friend enjoyed a long walk in its trail which I read extends up to 900 km. Wow!! We didn’t go that far. But we certainly enjoyed the scenery, going through the woods overlooking the stream of water that flows from Albion Falls nearby. Sipping medium cup of Tim Hortons coffee, and taking pictures and selfies. We spent quite a while engulfing ourselves watching Albion Falls. Taking pictures as much as we can to commemorate its beauty. We saw some people down at the bottom, and we wonder how they got there. We looked around, found an entrance by the side of the road but unfortunately, it was locked. Would have been nice if we were able to get closer to it. I will certainly would come back here.

Very beautiful waterfall. I put 3 stars as the place has many visitors and not clear signs and warnings to the people that want see from the bottom the falls. I will like the municipality make a proper stairs or clean the path with railing so everyone can see it without any danger. Is such beautiful place. 5 stars on the view and waterfalls Amazing view from top they have a nice parking and view area to make nice photos and if you like see it from from bottom be careful. I extremely suggest if you are not hiker do not do down see from the bottom, the trail is rocky and can be slippery if is wet, you will have to be careful. Only for experienced on this types of trails, with proper shoes. Do not go to the water barefoot many accidents recently has happen.
