Spectacular Fall Scenery
This fall, step outside Toronto’s backdoor and experience autumn in the Hills. Test your navigation skills along one of our great fall drives or request a map of the region and plot your own route. Our local accommodations are offering several overnight getaway packages to make your visit to the Hills of Headwaters more relaxing.
With our many country roads and the rolling terrain provided by the Niagara Escarpment any back-road route will deliver an impressive fall show. The colour progression report indicates the beautiful Hockley Valley is at about 70% colour change and the Airport Road area of the Hockley Valley is always outstanding during the fall. Pack your camera and head to the Hills of Headwaters this weekend to view our spectacular fall scenery!
