- Dundas, Ontario, Canada - the hidden gems of my hometown. A wonderful little valley town in Southern Ontario surrounded by hiking trails, beautiful waterfalls, and stunning views from the top of the escarpment. Contest winning video entry for the Fairmont Hotels #MyDestinationStory contest.

I was born and raised there ( family settled there in the early 1800s) and it has changed so much since the 60s! Still beautiful, but I cry at what has been lost: the wilderness, the quiet, nature.
I absolutely love this video! I agree with the thesis of this video: Dundas will always be home! :D
What a beautiful hometown. Thanks for sharing.
Please forward Frank Lacey's personal e-mail.
From Mike Sheehy--his cousin.
I plan to see this soon again, one of my hometowns also ;-)
Nice little glimpse into the town where I grew up. Thanks.
Glad you enjoy it!
My hometown too.
Pet Valu whaddup ;-)
Where is the abandoned building?
That is the Hermitage - it is at the Dundas Valley Conservation Area. This video was taken years ago and it does look a bit different now.
Try to visit this place but my GPS send me up to Christie lake.
You need a better GPS! ;) Hope you made it there!
You drove right past it....
Forgot to mention all the lead everywhere
petra mark what are you talking about?
Justin Plus Lauren the majority of the school were built in the 60s or earlier so most schools have heightened levels of lead in them. And they haunt fixed even though it's been a problem for years.
@@petramark294 Most of those schools are gone
lol what a bunch of bs. I'm from there but a bit older lol
Why bs? There's nothing wrong with loving where you're from.
@@JustinPlusLauren Now it is trendy an upscale. When I grew up there in the 60s and 70s it was awash with drugs and booze and every social problem you can imagine. About 1/2 the storefronts on King Street were boarded up and your family had to have lived there a 100 years to get a job at Bertrums of Valley City.
@@haltomont Really ? Wow ! That's hard to imagine. We first moved there in 1981, and it was just like it is now, except less 'trendy', and more 'small town'. There were no boarded up shops, and the ones that were there were far less expensive and elite than they are now.
