About 2km south of Elora is the photo-worthy Elora Gorge Conservation Area, a plunging limestone canyon through which the Grand River seethes. Easy walks extend to cliff views, caves and the Cascade waterfalls – a sheet of white water spilling over a stepped cliff. For a free gorge view, head to the end of James St, off Metcalfe St in Elora. Tubing is a lazy way to spend a warm afternoon at the gorge. You can also camp here.
