Stubb's Falls
A seasonal cascade on the Little East River in Arrowhead Provincial Park near Huntsville, ON, reached by an easy 2.6 km trail. Best in spring; the flow drops in summer.
What visitors say
Stubb's Falls is where the Little East River rushes down a rock chute in Arrowhead Provincial Park, surrounded by rock formations and mature hardwood forest. It's a seasonal falls: visitors say it's at its best after the spring melt and can shrink to a thin flow by midsummer, though it's still worth the walk.
The Stubb's Falls trail is an easy 2.6 km loop, about 45 minutes, and well marked from the parking lot. Most reviewers call it short and straightforward. One visitor was disappointed that the bridge crosses at the top of the falls, which makes it harder to see the full cascade.
It pairs well with Big Bend Lookout, and the park has beaches, canoe and kayak rentals, camping and winter skating and skiing. Anglers can fish the park's lakes with an Ontario licence and Outdoors Card; Mayflower Lake is stocked with rainbow trout and Arrowhead Lake holds smallmouth bass.
You'll need an Ontario Parks day-use permit. The parking lot fills on holiday and fall weekends, and the hardwoods make this a popular fall colour walk.
