Where the flight locks reflect autumn's gold
Fall in Thorold is spectacular at the Flight Locks (Lock 7), where massive freighters pass through a canyon of golden autumn colours. DeCew Falls and Morningstar Mill offer stunning fall hiking on the Bruce Trail, with the waterfall framed by crimson and orange leaves. The Merritt Trail along the old canal towpath is perfect for autumn walking and cycling.
The Thorold Farmers' Market celebrates harvest with apples, squash, and preserves. The Thorold Museum offers fall heritage walks. In Thorold, fall is a time to watch the ships, hike to the falls, and enjoy the crisp escarpment air.
