Just before Christmas we decided to stroll around Dundas and stopped into Carnegie Gallery . What a lovely gallery ! As it was the Christmas season many different artists had their wares on display for purchase. The many tree ornaments were wonderful and the pottery and art works were really a joy to look at ! I bought each of my grandchildren pretty Angel ornaments that they will treasure for many years to come. We really enjoyed our time here and will definitely be returning for another look. Many of the artist are local and it's great for them to have such a nice place to display their artwork and pottery etc ! The staff were very friendly and helpful.

What a wonderful way to start a vacation day! Quick tour, all of our questions answered and then, a flight on the patio to end it all. Great beer, knowledgeable guides, friendly beertender :), and did I mention they make a great brew. Thanks to all.

My favourite birthday was here. A canoe ride on the little lake and a walk in the woods where a bevy of white butterflies fluttered around us. We picnicked in one of the pavilions. The rest room was clean. It was perfect.

Breath taking scenery and a lovely walk on the grounds.. A special place for making memories, locals go there often and visitors who come for the first time are astounded by the natural beauty this part of Dundas has to offer.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the overwhelming popularity of Dundas Peak & Tew Falls and Webster Falls, HCA has instituted online reservable parking in 2-hour time slots. From Sept. 19 – Nov. 15, 2020, all visitors, including HCA passholders, will be required to make a reservation prior to their visit. This change to a mandatory reservation will manage visitor numbers and will assist with physical distancing and provide a safe and enjoyable visit. It will also allow visitors to travel with the peace of mind, knowing that their parking space is held for them. No access will be permitted into the area until September 19. Reservations may be be made up to a week prior to your visit. Reservations are made for 2-hour blocks, starting at 9 AM, 12 PM and 3 PM. Arrival times will be staggered in 15 minute intervals. This system will be in place seven days a week, both weekdays and weekends, until November 15, 2020.
Tew's Falls is a ribbon waterfall in the Hamilton area that is 41 metres in height, making it the tallest waterfall in Hamilton and shorter than Niagara Falls by 11 metres. It is located in the Spencer Gorge Conservation Area, which is part of the Hamilton Conservation Authority. On weekends from Easter to Halloween, to see these falls, you must take the waterfalls shuttle from a parking area at Christie Lake. The cost for this is $10 for parking and $5 per person. The shuttles run every 15-30 min or so and drop you off a short walk from one of the observation platforms. There are two main observation platforms that allow you to see the entire waterfall and take some great photos. Because of the beauty of the area, it can be quite busy and we saw a bridal party having a photo shoot on one of the platforms during our visit. The path from the shuttle stop to the first observation platform is an easy hike and approximately 150 meters away. The next platform is not too much farther up the trail and also has some great views of the falls. You can follow the trail on a moderate half hour hike all the way to Dundas Peak for some amazing view of Hamilton and Dundas and surrounding area. In the off season and through the week, you can find parking a little closer to the falls themselves and not have to take the shuttle from Christie Lake. Autumn is a beautiful time to visit for those who enjoy the fall colours, but these falls would be lovely any time of year.
