Devil's Rock, or Devils Rock, is a granite escarpment, located 5 kilometres (3 mi) south of Haileybury, Ontario, Canada. It is dated to be 2,200 million years old and it has a face of 600 feet (180 m) rising 300 feet (91 m) above Lake Timiskaming. People have been rock climbing Devil's Rock in recent years.
