Nestled in the rugged beauty of Northern Ontario, **Onaping Falls** is a hidden gem where geology, art, and nature collide. The area is famed for **High Falls**, a dramatic 55-metre cascade on the Onaping River, immortalized by Group of Seven artist A.Y. Jackson—there’s even a lookout named after him. What makes it even more fascinating? The falls sit on the edge of the **Sudbury Basin**, a massive crater formed by a meteorite impact nearly two billion years ago, exposing rich mineral deposits that shaped the region’s mining legacy. It’s a place where you can literally stand on ancient cosmic history while soaking in postcard-worthy views.
