The Hammer
Chasing waterfalls across the city is a must-do during any visit to Hamilton, Ontario. It’s home to more than 100 waterfalls tucked behind the trails of the Niagara Escarpment that cuts through the city.
Bonus: They’re all found minutes from the downtown core. Also, don't miss the breathtaking views from the Dundurn Castle, a historic gem that transports you back in time. Explore the lush trails of the Royal Botanical Gardens or take a scenic stroll along the Waterfront Trail. Hamilton also makes a good base for an extended trip to visit regional attractions, such as Niagara Falls.
