Ontario offers a multitude of ways to play in our spectacular outdoors – from hundreds of hiking and cycling trails to beaches, spelunking adventures and guided eco-tours.

Take a leisurely stroll or pedal along our urban waterfront trails or the Toronto Islands. Lace up your boots and trek the spectacular Bruce Trail - Canada’s oldest and longest footpath, which winds all the way from Queenston to Tobermory along the Niagara Escarpment – designated as a UNESCO Biosphere Region. Take a more rugged route on wilderness trails in Muskoka, Georgian Bay and further north, where guides are often available. Follow historic canals like the Rideau on foot or bicycle. Go on Hummer tours at Deerhurst Resort or Blue Mountain Resort. Or bask away the day on one of our spectacular beaches like Sandbanks Provincial Park and Wasaga Beach – the longest freshwater beach in the world.

Delve into Ontario’s geological and natural history on an eco-adventure tour at the Scenic Caves Nature Adventures near Collingwood. Go deep into caverns. Get a bird’s-eye view of Georgian Bay along the tree tops of a suspension bridge, and fly back to earth on a 300-ft. zip line. For more eco-adventures, try the Haliburton Forest and Wildlife Reserve, Bonnechere Caves near Eaganville, the Canadian Ecology Centre in Samuel de Champlain Provincial Park near North Bay, and many others.

ATVing is a popular and exhilarating experience in Ontario. Well-maintained trails and all-terrain vehicle recreational networks operate in the Eastern Ontario, Mattawa, Elliot Lake, Parry Sound and Cochrane areas of the province.
