Dundas Peak & Tew Falls

A dramatic escarpment lookout reached through mature forest above the Dundas Valley.

The short version

The Spencer Gorge trails lead to one of Hamilton's signature views. The route is short but includes uneven ground and exposed lookout areas, so a secure leash is essential.

Reservations are often required during peak fall colour season. Arrive early, bring water, and give other trail users plenty of room at narrow sections.

The dog details

Leashed dogs are permitted. Keep well back from cliffs and lookout edges.
