Ontario at its most majestic

North of Superior you walk in the footsteps of the Aboriginals and voyageurs and sleep under northern lights.

Here in Ontario’s northwest, you’ll fill your senses with the freshness of the clean piney air. Along with the land trails, there are thousands of kilometres of routes through shimmering lakes, sparkling rivers and alongside endless islands.

You’ll see nature at its most powerful with trails that take you along the rocky coastline of Lake Superior.

Discover deep chasms and plunging waterfalls (Kakabeka Falls, the "Niagara of the North" near Thunder Bay plummets 39 metres). Everywhere, you’ll see towering granite cliffs dramatically carved from the Canadian Shield by the last of the glaciers.

You’ll wonder at ancient Aboriginal pictographs of wildlife carved into rock. Be sure to visit Ear Falls, the bald eagle capital of North America. Here in Ontario’s north, you’ll find a true four-season wonderland. Plan to explore it soon!
