- Mike from Rival TownNiagara Falls, Canada1,132 contributionsGreat hiking area! Excellent views! Nice waterfall. I come here often for photo/video projects. Be careful not to slip!Written March 3, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- AntoniaHamilton, Canada1,901 contributionsBayfront is a great place to come with friends, couples or family. The scenery is very soothing and appealing to view because it is surrounded by water. I usually come here for exercise in the spring and summer time. It has long paved trails for you to take a walk or jog around. In the summer it also has food trucks. There are washrooms located at this park and a large parking lot to park your car free of charge. I recommend this park for people who live in Hamilton and for people who live out of town and want a change of scenery. This is my favourite park to walk at in Hamilton, it has many wildlife critters for you to see.Written July 16, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Stephanie F1 contributionI live near the falls and I think people should know that the parking lot is very small and absolutely rammed on the weekends. If you can go on a weekday it's better (and also go after a good rain). Otherwise park near Sherman Falls and hike over or in one of the neighbourhoods.Written January 22, 2025This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- David PDover, UK63 contributionsVisited on a coolish June Monday afternoon. We enjoyed walking through time with the buildings that come from different eras, but sadly no buildings were open to visitors. But we still spent more than two hours there, including some walking on trails outside the village center.Written June 20, 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Try2TravelSustainablyHamilton, Canada401 contributionsOften there is a festival of some kind in the summer. Other times of the year it is good to visit for a walk or quiet afternoon.Written October 25, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Bryce K1 contributionWe wondered if seeing reptiles would be interesting to our grand-kids (3 1/2 and 7) when we took them away for the afternoon from their screens and lego. It was heartening to see that Nature fascinated them. My spouse and I were fondly reminded of own childhoold encounters with nature. We sat in on two presentations by Sierra who was cheerful, energetic and shared good information about the critters she introduced and their species. All the staff we met were polite and helpful. Little Ray seems to operate a pleasant work environment. His staff deserves to be well paid and treated with as much care and respect as his reptiles seem to be.Written December 28, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Mary MToronto, Canada109 contributionsI went for a walk and saw Tews falls and the gorge. There were stairs the view the falls on a lower level and a higher level.Written April 24, 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Heb Frantkle13 contributionsThis review exclusively pertains to a trip to Lake Ontario.
If you want to see Lake Ontario and a bit of nature, I imagine this place is about as good as any other. A bit of digging shows it consistently recommended as one of the best spots on the lake. Plenty of beaches and interesting rocks to pick up on them. Slight litter in the water and in the surrounding area that really ought to not be there (massive tanks washing up on shore) but is otherwise fairly clean and nice. Amazing views and a nice place to stay a while.Written November 1, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

There is some parking available in the town itself but it’s quite a walk to the fallsWritten November 7, 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Ed MMississauga, Canada20 contributionsA beautiful waterfall so close to home. Quiet, peaceful and visually stunning. A hidden gem.

- cabernet2007Hamilton, Canada8 contributionsValens park is a pretty good bang for your buck and in a nice area. It’s very large with lots of land, sites, trails, park areas and a big beach. It is family and pet friendly.
My only down, and I’m hoping they see this, is there is a lot of goose poop around the beach and in the water. It’s pretty gross. I understand that there’s wildlife around which is wonderful. It would just be nice if they would do something to keep the copious amount of geese off the beach area. My aunt has a device that keeps them off her yard.Written July 25, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Lots of affordable things to do such as mini-putting, beach volleyball, an average water park etc. The bugs (flies, mosquitoes) can get brutal at times, so bring bug spray!Written February 27, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- megan614Ottawa, Canada81 contributionsNice, wide, shaded trails: great for a hot sunny day! The washrooms and indoor tables and chairs at the trail centre were much appreciated.Written August 25, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
