This lifestyle is right at your doorstep…
- There are over 270 provincial parks, six national parks (including an underwater marine park) and hundreds of conservation areas in Ontario. Bounded by the largest fresh water system on the planet, Ontario is an outdoor paradise.
- You’ll find a range of experiences, from the wild and challenging excursion to family-oriented getaways. The choices are endless and the setting is guaranteed to be amidst a spectacular natural backdrop, some surprisingly close to urban centres.
- Spend a day, a weekend or longer getting close to nature, camping, hiking, paddling our lakes and rivers, or walking along sand dune lined beaches. Learn about nature and wildlife from parks’ staff and visitors’ centres.
- Ontario will fuel your passion for high adventure. Pick up a paddle and take a wild ride over white waters or test yourself in rock climbing. Winter might see you speeding down a ski slope, skating across the ice or snowmobiling over the many groomed trails.
