Timeline
19:42
Grab a quick bite at Sapporo Japanese Restaurant. It is open late, so you can eat early and still have time to settle in before the light changes.
20:12
Walk through Ferguson Station park. The simulated tracks and older downtown buildings provide a quiet, historic pause before heading toward the water.
20:57
Stand at Princess Point. At the very end of Lake Ontario, the sun sets toward the WNW. The golden light fades quickly here, so watch the water as the sky turns.
21:42
End the evening with a pint at Augusta's Winking Judge. With over 20 taps of microbreweries, it is the best place in Hamilton to unwind after the walk.
Local tip
Check the sunset time for your specific day. The golden light starts about an hour before sunset, but the actual moment is brief.
