About an hour out of Toronto sits Hilton falls, a sawmill from the 19th century. Thankfully the sawmill is long gone, although some of its structure remains. The fall are quite a wonder to explore in all seasons, and its only 70 km, hence close enough so that one need not worry about charging although there is a Flo station in nearby Milton.
Hilton falls is a good distance for a nice hike during an otherwise uneventful weekend. Do note that there is a modest admission charge, and reservations are required, these day’s owning to COVID restrictions, they frequently book up on weekends (source). Personally I prefer visiting in the winter as the ice-bound falls are quite a sight, but its a joy to visit Hilton falls in any season.
It is a 140 km drive there and back, hence our 2018 Nissan Leaf can make it there and back without any charging. We frequently find ourselves eyeing lunch in nearby Milton, where there is a pair of L2 Flow chargers as well as a L3 DC fast charger, along with tasty Chicken from Mary Browns. Since we are there, we usually plug into the L2 Flo charger to pick up a little extra juice.
