East Duchesnay Falls
East Duchesnay FallsDuchesnay Falls Trails. Waterfall Hike
4.8-km out-and-back trail near Calvin, Ontario. Generally considered an easy route, it takes an average of 1 h 21 min to complete.
Coming from Mattawa direction, it’s 2 driveways down from the yellow house on Hwy 17. Across the road and west from Columbia Forest Products Rd, the entrance to the gravel pit. Very clearly marked as not to park there, so park across the road, down a little bit. Most of the trail is a gravel road. Feels like you’re going uphill both ways, but the view at the end is definitely worth it! Bug jacket or spray is a must in the height of bug season.
Pack a light lunch, wear comfy shoes, bring swim suits.
