Presqu’ile Provincial Park

I love when one adventure leads me to another. A few friends had setup a camping trip to Sandbanks Provincial Park and on the way there we saws signs for a different park, Presqu'ile Provincial Park. Having never been in the area I knew nothing of Presqu'ile, so I made a mental note to look it up when we were home. When I started doing a bit of research I found out that Presqu'ile Provincial Park is a birder's paradise in the spring. A park I hadn't been to before, that specializes in birds, some of which aren't typically in the area? This I had to see! Keep reading.

Little Cove Provincial Park

Maybe it's just a tourist thing, or maybe a bear thing, but the Little Tub Bakery has become a fixture on our yearly trip to Tobermory. They create the most amazing treats that always makes our stay so much more delicious! All that time I spent browsing muffins, cookies and pies, I never knew there was something else just as amazing right across the street. In a search for new parks to visit, I came across Little Cove Provincial Park and given it's small size it seemed like a quick way to try and add to my count. After checking it out, I think I have another place I have to visit every year! Keep reading.

Wilson’s Falls

Long ago, Wilson's Falls became a permanent destination on any of my trips up North. I've hiked both sides, climbed over the rocks, watched the new dam get built and even picnicked beside the falls. The size of the of falls, the bend of the river, the ease of access and the great scenery all around make this waterfall one of my favourites. Keep reading.

Ferris Provincial Park

I first learned about Ferris Provincial Park on an awkward drive home from a camping trip at Presqu'ile Provincial Park. We were driving north on highway 30, passing over the 401 to join the westbound traffic when as we crossed over the crest of the bridge we could see someone waving their arms, trying to grab our attention. There were three cars backing up the on-ramp as the 401 was literally a parking lot due to a massive accident. So, as we drove past the ramp and were trying to figure out how to get home, we saw signs for Ferris Provincial Park. Though we didn't get to visit that day, I made sure to add it to my list!
