Duchesnay Falls in Nissipping, Ontario
During my road trip to Sudbury decided to do a pitstop at Nissipping, Ontario to visit the Duchesnay Falls. The trail is easily accessible right off of Highway 17. The trail entrance is hard to spot but just listen for the sound of running water at the north-west end of the parking area.
The trail runs parallel to the Duchesnay Falls, a 70-metre high waterfall that cascades in stages down from the top of the escarpment. The volume of water varies with the time of year. During the spring runoff, the falls can be quite spectacular. In the summer and fall seasons, the water volume drops low enough to allow hikers to scramble along most of the riverbed without getting their feet wet.
Definitely a great pitstop during the road trip up north.
