Parks & Nature

Huckleberry Rock has been well known locally for over 100 years as a scenic lookout. These rocks are some of the oldest rock in the world, well over a billion years old. The trail surrounds a bowl-shaped area that holds water and has allowed a bog to develop that supports a black spruce ecosystem. Gorgeous views of Lake Muskoka from lookout - one of our family's favourite places to go.

There are three trails - a 3km trail that traverses rocky outcrops, natural shoreline and forested areas. This trail is of moderate difficulty with some steep ascents and declines. Users should have basic navigation skills. The 8km trail circles the lake with magnificent views of untouched shoreline. This is considered a 'wilderness' trail and can be challenging for novice users! The trail travels over shoreline, wetlands and forested areas and requires some moderate navigation skills. The trail requires at least 2-3 hours to complete. A seven kilometre trail on the South East side of the park traverses through forest and over wetlands to the shore of Lake Muskoka providing splendid views of one of the 'big lakes'. This trail is also challenging, and users should be prepared to navigate thick bush.

The Farmers' Market is held every Thursday morning at Hanna Park, at the end of Bailey Street. Great vendors offering a variety of goods. Hanna Park is good for a visit any day, though, as it has a beach, volleyball court, covered picnic area, playground, and public boat launch.
