Ancaster doctor named George Park acquired the property that a new sawmill emerged on site. The building Park constructed was impressive, with solid stone foundations, modern machinery, and an immense 40-foot diametre water wheel weighing 3,500 lbs. to power the saws. Dr. Park only operated the mill for a single year before selling it. Three years later, the building was destroyed in a devastating fire, leaving behind only the atmospheric stone ruins we see alongside the falls today. The third and final mill was constructed by John Richards in 1863. Like its predecessor, it lasted but a few short years before it, too, was razed by fire in 1867. After this last final mill was destroyed, no one else stepped forward to harness the water power of Hilton Falls. Today, the sawmills are but a distant memory and, save for the stone foundations, Hilton Falls have returned to their original state as a natural oasis. Hilton Falls is a short drive from Halton Hills, and boy, is it worth it. You'll leave wonderfully stress-free, as if the soothing sound of falling and the breathtaking views washes away your worries. That's the magic of Hilton Falls. To get there Hilton Falls Conservation Area is three kilometres east of the Guelph Line (Halton Road 1) on Campbellville Road (Halton Road 9). The parking lot is on the south side. The trail leading to the waterfall is smooth and well-groomed, but visitors should expect a 20-minute walk. IT'LL BRING YOU A DECADE OF FUN. THAT'S A LOT OF PERFECT WEEKENDS.
