East of Fifty Falls facts for kids

East of Fifty Falls is a beautiful waterfall located in Stoney Creek, which is part of Hamilton, Ontario, Canada. This waterfall is about 5-metre-high (16 ft), which is like a two-story building! It's called an "overhang ribbon" waterfall because the water flows over a ledge and drops down in a thin, ribbon-like shape.

The falls are on private property, but people are allowed to visit with permission. This means it's a special place that needs to be respected. The water for the falls comes from a small stream called the Fifty tributary.
