Hamilton Sunsets

Being situated on the western shores of Lake Ontario, the sun sets into the escarpment & it can be tricky to find a place to watch the spectacular sunsets we get to enjoy here. 

Now I am a realtor here in the Hamilton, Burlington, Oakville & surrounding areas so if you’re curious about the area or thinking about a move, I’m just an email away!

1 - Bayfront Park & Piers

2 - McQuesten High Bridge

Now, since we mentioned the McQuesten Bridge, it offers one of the best views as you’re positioned higher up & get a clear view. It makes a fantastic backdrop for those romantic photo shoots or if you enjoy birdwatching, it’s a great vantage point!

3 - Desjardins Recreation Trail

Next up is just below the bridge along the Desjardins Recreation Trail which offers a stunning Cootes Paradise backdrop as you sit in the valley of the Niagara Escarpment & enjoy the setting sun.

4 - Princess Point (Coote's Paradise)

A bit further along is Princess Point, a part of the Cootes Paradise nature sanctuary which is owned by the Royal Botanical Gardens. They’ve created multiple platforms & sitting areas that are ideal locations for a more private viewing of the sunset.

5 - Rural Hamilton

Another area that has some beautiful sunset views are on top of the escarpment in many of the fields in Flamborough, Glanbrook, Binbrook, Waterdown, etc. So in this case, hop in the car & enjoy the scenic setting sun across the fields by driving on any of the roads that run east/west.

6 - Devil's Punch Bowl Conservation Area

If you’re looking for an above the city view of the sunsets here in Hamilton, I encourage you to check out the Hamilton Conservation Authority’s Devils Punch Bowl park which offers a lookout to the west & is one of the best places to say farewell to the day. 

Thank you for joining me as we explore the stunning sunsets in Hamilton, Ontario.

Until next week, 

Keep it genuine!
