    Terrain: Strenuous

    Description

    This hike will follow the main trail from one conservation area to another, going from Jordan to Beamsville. To start, after a gentle decline, we will climb a long set of stairs, and pass through Ball’s Falls historical village with a short detour to look at the lower Ball’s Falls*. The trail follows along the top of the escarpment with beautiful views of the vineyards below, with numerous steep ascents/descents. Once we reach Cave Springs we will have a short rest/break before turning around and retracing our steps.

    *Hikers new to the area may want to plan to spend more time here after the hike.
