This was my second time visiting Sherman Falls and it was just as breathtaking as the first time, maybe even more so with the fall colours.
We had hiked over here through the woods from Tiffany Falls, a beautiful walk of just over one and a half kilometers. Although the paths are fairly well defined, they were covered with red and yellow leaves of the fall season, adding to the beauty. Unfortunately, there is also an element of danger, with exposed tree roots, uneven terrain, and some loose surfaces. Be careful!
Once there, however, it was beautiful and so peaceful to just drink in the scenery, even with many other weekend visitors coming and going. They're all friendly though, and polite, allowing you the space and time to get a good shot.
There is a plateau halfway up the falls that some of the more adventurous visitors climb up to. I didn't have the confidence to do that, not with all the camera gear I was carrying. No matter where you view it from, it's beautiful!
Sherman Falls is located on privately owned land, with hiking trails going through it. The paths are well defined and there's even a sturdy bridge crossing the creek, allowing visitors to enjoy the view from both sides. Thank you to the land owners for sharing the beauty of this waterfall.
Photo tip: Take a wide angle lens and a tripod with you. The lens will allow you to take in the breadth of the falls from up close and the tripod will allow you to use a slow enough shutter speed to make the water's flow seem smoother. Using a flash would help if you're taking pictures of people.
With over a hundred waterfalls in the Hamilton area, this one is worthy of a visit. Bring...
Read more⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ Fall colours & Frozen winter Sherman falls also known as Fairy falls or Angel falls. Gorgeous double cascade waterfalls. This falls has constant water flows so you’ll never be disappointed on your visit. Child friendly trail. Approximately 5-10 mins short trail. Fall colours in the woods are nice too. You can safely wall to the fore so easy. It’s nice to spend a quite moment and just listen to the sound of nature “Oasis” . One exciting thing to do on winter is to spend a white water trail hike to a winter waterfalls scene. It’s an amazing feeling to experience to be standing, walk around and play right above the surface of the frozen force fosse. You can see patch holes looking though underneath and listed to the sound of rushing waters. Although winter is a bit slippery but can safely walk to the gore and enjoy playing with snow along your way. Wheelchair can access (summer and fall season) only half way but enough to see and listen to the waterfalls. Will definitely need help to to get up close to the gore. Parking at Artaban parking lot cost about $5. Will take about 5 minutes walk from parking to the hike trail entry. Our photos was taken mid October of 2020. We came weekdays so it be less people around and it helps specially Covid pandemic is in effect. People are friendly, respectful and not crowded on weekdays visit. Not so sure on a weekend. Updated few more photos and videos taken February 2021 If you find this review helpful do drop us a like and...
