Set within the breathtaking Twenty Valley, Ball’s Falls Conservation Area offers spectacular scenery and natural beauty.
Now imagine it all lit up in time for the holiday season?!
Join us at Ball’s Falls Conservation Area this December, for a spectacular hiking experience featuring a 1.5 km (round trip) illuminated path through natural areas along the Niagara Escarpment and Twenty Mile Creek and through the 1800s heritage village of Glen Elgin.
