Ontario
This huge province stretches all the way
from the Great Lakes on the USA border
to the frozen shores of Hudson Bay, covering
more than one million square kilometres.
Home to Canada’s largest city, Toronto, and
its capital, Ottawa, the province also boasts
one of the world’s great natural wonders,
Niagara Falls. Charming villages such as
Niagara-on-the-Lake and Goderich can be
combined with the wineries and birdlife of
Pelee Island, the thriving art scene of Prince
Edward County and Manitoulin Island’s
large First Nations population who hold
pow-wows of traditional dancing and
singing throughout the summer months.
Killarney and Algonquin Provincial Parks
are accessible gems that offer wonderful
wildlife viewing, canoeing and fishing.
Meanwhile, the remote north and west is
a land of forest and tundra, with a vibrant
Cree culture and important settler history
including the Hudson Bay Company’s first
outpost at Moosonee. Polar Bear Provincial
Park covers thousands of square kilometres
and visiting these remote areas by plane, train
and boat opens up the possibility of excellent
wildlife viewing on both land and sea. With
its modern cities, grand landscapes and prolific
wildlife, the great expanses of Ontario are a
joy to explore.
