Nice park with many trails and routes for hiking, mountain biking and skiing in the winter. Fall colours can be seen along the escarpment trail, there are a few lookouts along the trail. If you don’t want to do a long hike, take the chairlift (open only in weekends in fall) from the bottom at east lodge to save some energy. But make sure to reserve tickets in advance on conservationhalton.ca cause it could be sold out. You can also find trail map on the website, it’s good practice to keep it handy as there are too many routes in the park so not to get lost in the woods. My personal opinion is this park’s fall colours viewing experience is better than Rattle snake and Crawford lake conservation area.

Rattlesnake Point Conservation Area is a hidden gem for anyone looking for a quick yet rewarding outdoor experience. The trails are relatively short and beginner-friendly, making it perfect for families, casual hikers, or anyone just wanting to spend a few hours in nature. The views from the lookout points are absolutely stunning — especially from the cliffs, where you get a panoramic view of the escarpment and forest below. It’s a great spot for photos or just soaking in the scenery. Overall, it’s a peaceful and scenic place that’s easy to get to and doesn’t require a full-day commitment. Highly recommended for a relaxing walk, a short hike, or just some time in nature.

The walk around the lake is absolutely lovely — the boardwalk trail makes it an easy and scenic loop, perfect for all ages. The lake itself is peaceful and surrounded by forest, which makes for a relaxing stroll. One of the highlights was the tour of the Longhouses. It was both educational and fascinating to learn about Indigenous history and culture in such an interactive setting. The interpretive signage was informative without being overwhelming. The visitor center is small but very charming — a great little stop with helpful staff and interesting displays. I also noticed quite a few families enjoying the area, including parents with strollers, so the trails are definitely kid-friendly and accessible. Highly recommend for a day out in nature with a bit of culture and history added in!

We had a wonderful time at Springridge Farm in Milton! It’s a great spot for families with young kids. There’s so much to do—wagon rides, sand play, slides, a web climbing area, and even a small corn maze. My little one especially enjoyed meeting the friendly animals—hens, goats, and sheep. The farm is very well maintained and super photogenic, especially with all the pumpkins around this time of year. Their bakery is a must-visit—try the honey, it’s amazing! You can easily spend 3–4 hours here. Clean, safe, and lots of open space. Highly recommend for a fun day out with kids! Ticket price is $18 including tax per person. It’s worth.

I visited **Hilton Falls Conservation Park** on a Saturday afternoon and had a fantastic experience exploring its scenic trails. The park offers a great mix of hiking and biking routes, catering to different fitness levels while keeping nature at the forefront. **Hiking Trails & Difficulty:** The park features **three main hiking trails**: - **Hilton Falls Trail (3 km, moderate)** – A wide, well-maintained path leading to the falls, surrounded by towering trees that provide shade and a peaceful atmosphere. - **Red Oak Trail (5 km, moderate)** – A slightly longer loop with varied terrain, great for those wanting a bit more of a challenge. - **Beaver Dam Trail (7 km, strenuous)** – The most demanding of the three, offering a rewarding workout with some rugged sections. The **hike to Hilton Falls** was particularly enjoyable—the wide path made for easy walking, and the final descent to the falls via a set of stairs provided the perfect **photo opportunity** at the base of the cascading water. **Bike Trails:** In addition to hiking, there are **three bike trails**, making this park a great destination for cyclists looking to enjoy some off-road riding. **Crowd Levels:** When I arrived in the early afternoon, the trails were pleasantly quiet, but by the time I was heading back, the main paths had gotten **a bit busier** (likely due to the falls being a popular spot). Still, it never felt overcrowded. **Overall Impression:** Hilton Falls is a **beautiful and well-maintained park** with trails suitable for casual walkers and more adventurous hikers alike. The waterfall is the highlight, but the surrounding forest and additional trails make it worth multiple visits. If you’re looking for a peaceful nature escape with options for both hiking and biking, this is a great choice! A must-visit for outdoor enthusiasts—scenic, well-marked, and just the right level of challenge!

Enjoyed a fabulous evening at Marquee with my wife for our anniversary. Service was great. Thank you Gary. Food was amazing. So glad we chose to come here instead of a mainstream restaurant like the Keg. Yes, dinner will cost about $100 per person or more depending on what you order. It will be worth it. The live piano music was a perfect enhancement to the overall ambiance. There are two floors and a rooftop patio, which should be open by Victoria Day long weekend (weather permitting). Favorite dishes so far include the Grilled Octopus, Moroccan Chicken, Lobster and Crab Ravioli, and the new Poppy Roll desert.

This would be our second “road trip” to Milton from Etobicoke! Lunch was on the itinerary. We walked along Main Street. We arrived at The Ivy Arms and it was packed! Had to go inside! No lineups! Got a table for two adjacent to the front window. Our server, Wendy, immediately greeted us and provided two menus. I cannot resist a chicken curry. The bride had the Friday Single Fish ’n Chips. By this time, there was a lineup. I believe these patrons ate outside. Wendy was FAST! Wow! I say Bravo. The problem, and it’s not really a problem, is that I soon become dreadfully monosyllabic after eating curry. Everyone appreciates the quietness. It was great. Was not afraid of the spice. The bride enjoyed her lunch too. I even managed to calculate a huge tip ‘on my own’. Fair pricing. Tasty food. Fun time! Thank you.

Attentive friendly staff. Soft piano music playing, decor was nice and food was delicious. Will definitely go back a few times to try everything on the menu. Thank you for a great dinner :)

Had a lovely dining experience at Pasqualino! The service is prompt, frequent and very friendly. We came for an early dinner (5pm) so it was easy for us to get a table for 4. By the time we were leaving most of the tables were full - so look to book a reservation if you're coming for a ~7pm dinner! The food was delicious and the menu had numerous options that caught my eye. Top quality spot!

Celebrating my 65th was a lovely experience at this restaurant in Milton Ontario. We Started with a delicious Caesar salad, a caprese salad and hubby had the house special soup which was pea soup. All were delicious. Main courses were Rack of lamb done to perfection with a side of pasta with olio sauce. Daughter had the linguini Pescatore which was loaded with mussels, clams, calamari, shrimp,, scallops in a tomato sauce. Also delicious. Hubby had the spaghetti Arrabiatta with a grilled Italian sausage. It normally is served with rigatoni but he preferred spaghetti and they kindly obliged. Birthday dessert was fresh fruit peaches with icecream and an espresso. Everything was perfect and Alfredo our waiter was amazing. We weren’t rushed. Reserved a table by the window. Restaurant was packed for a Monday evening as it’s usually a slower day for restaurants. Ambience was romantic and comfortable. Also had a bottle of wine from their nice selection of wines. One of my favourite places for a lovely dinner for a special occasion.
