About Mink Creek Falls

Mink Creek Falls, located near Marathon, Ontario, is a hidden gem accessible via a short, moderately challenging trail. This 0.3 km (0.2 mile) out-and-back path makes for a quick nature break, taking around 7 minutes to complete. Though not particularly wide, the waterfall’s unique rockface creates an illusion of size, making it appear larger and more striking than expected. The falls are surrounded by dense greenery, which becomes especially vibrant after rain. This short trail includes steep hills and exposed roots, which can be slippery—good footwear is recommended for a safer trek. Despite its short length and relative obscurity, Mink Creek Falls provides a peaceful escape and a chance to pause and enjoy the simplicity of natural beauty. This lesser-known spot along Highway 17 is an ideal quick stop for those traveling through the area, offering a refreshing break and a touch of tranquility in the midst of Ontario’s rugged landscape.
