Accessible from Jordan Village by either a leisurely hike or a short trip by car, the Ball's Falls Heritage Conservation Area encompasses over 200 acres of scenic natural and built heritage, including two spectacular cataracts on the Niagara Escarpment and the traces of a mid 19th century industrial hamlet. One of the first community along the lower Twenty Mile Creek, a grist mill, lime kiln, a restored church, log cabin and a family home are some of the structures that are open for guided tours. (*Note: The church at Ball's Falls is St. George's Anglican Church, originally from Hannon, Ontario.
