Water enthusiasts can indulge in a tranquil paddle along the historic Trent-Severn Waterway, or revel in the breathtaking foliage on a relaxing boat cruise from the Port of Orillia. There are so many ways to slow down and relish the season, including sensational spas at world-class resorts that also offer seasonal stay packages.

Adrenaline junkies need to try the challenging mountain biking trails that wind through the forest at Hardwood Ski and Bike or the exhilarating Treetop Trekking and the 2,000-foot Mega Zip at Horseshoe Resort.
Or, take to the skies to see the kaleidoscope of colours as a passenger with Lake Country Airways tours. It’s a unique way to enjoy expansive views and make your trip to Orillia & Lake Country all that more memorable.
