Middle Falls Walk

A short walk on the old campground road from the Middle Falls parking area will take you to 18 metre (59 feet) Middle Falls. This second waterfall on Pigeon River is in a series inland from Lake Superior. Thunder Bay City and Area Green Spaces Boulevard Lake.

The central feature of the park, however, is the impressive 28 metre (90 ft) High Falls which empties into the spectacular Pigeon River Gorge. This park was formerly named "Middle Falls" after a smaller (6 m/20 ft) falls upstream from the big falls and just outside the park's boundary.

The Pigeon River is part of the Canadian Heritage River System Boundary Waters Voyageur Waterway. One of the cultural features of the park is the remnant of an old sluiceway used to drive great white pine logs that had been harvested upstream around the falls.
