    Kakabeka Falls, often called the “Niagara of the North, is an impressive 40-metre-high waterfall on the Kaministiquia River. The falls plunge into a steep, ancient gorge carved through Precambrian rock, revealing 1.6-billion-year-old fossils in the exposed shale. There are several boardwalks and lookouts around its rim, for plenty of opportunities to capture some unforgettable photos while you’re here.

    Hiking

    which are also known as the "Niagara Falls of the North". Be sure to wear long hiking pants and a long-sleeved shirt, as well as insect repellent, if you plan to hike the Beaver Meadow and River Terrace Trails in the summer. And please check for ticks afterward!
