DISCOVER NATURAL TREASURES
Alternatively, you can explore this region along
the Wonders of Our Earth route.
Start at the Haliburton Forest & Wild Life
Reserve, an Ontario Signature Experience -
OSE, where you can thrill to the howl of the
wild at the Wolf Centre or take a treetop
canopy walk (www.haliburtonforest.com
).
The renowned Bark Lake Leadership Centre
provides outdoor educational and leadership
programs for all ages and group sizes (www.
barklake.com
). And Yours Outdoors, yet
another OSE, offers Haliburton Rocks!—
guided tours that give you a chance to discover
hidden gems and learn about the region's
unique geology (www.yoursoutdoors.ca
).
Hunt for ancient fossils at Bonnechere
Caves (www.bonnecherecaves.com
) or visit
an early 1900's mica mine at Murphys Point
Provincial Park (www.ontarioparks.com/
park/murphyspoint
). The park is part of
the Rideau Heritage Route, which parallels
the Rideau Canal from Ottawa to Kingston
(www.rideauheritageroute.ca
).
Beyond geology, you can learn about maple
syrup production at Fulton's Pancake House and
Sugar Bush (www.fultons.ca
) and enjoy the
four-season playground at Calabogie Peaks
Resort (www.calabogie.com
).
Accommodations along both routes include
charming bed and breakfasts, such as The Deakins
on Mountainview B&B (www.deakinbandb.
com
) and the Sunny Rock B&B (www.sunny
rock.on.ca
), as well as larger properties, such as
the Best Western Pembroke Inn & Conference
Centre (www.bestwesternpembroke.com
).
With so much to see and do, one thing is
certain, you'll wish you could stay longer.
