The Kawartha Highlands is the second largest park in Southern Ontario. We'll begin just at the northern part of it where the 9 KM loop will take us through meadows, forests and rocky outcrops. This trail is also interactive - keep your phone batteries full so you can scan the QR codes along the trail to learn more about the beautiful nature we pass.
To cool off, we'll stop by the busy waters of Burleigh Falls. There's no actual trail, but feel free to safely walk across as far as the large boulders will take you. You can dip your hands, feet, or if you're feeling adventurous, your head into the cold rushing water.

We'll walk across the street to check out the Trent-Severn Waterway Lock #28. We may catch a glimpse of how Lock #28 lowers and raises large boats and other watercraft between each stretches of water.
