Discover the Niagara Escarpment

Bruce Peninsula

Discover the Bruce Peninsula, a rocky finger of the Niagara Escarpment within easy driving distance of crowded urban centres but a world apart. The Niagara Escarpment cliffs rise bold and dramatic above deep blue waters of Georgian Bay. Endless waves have carved the rock into spectecular features - caves and grottos, overhanging cliffs and stacks. Westward, the land slopes down to the Lake Huron shoreline and gentler beaches, ferns and forests.

Hike the Bruce Trail along the rocky headland of Lion's Head and enjoy a breathtaking view over Whipporwill and Isthmus Bay. Visit the Bruce National Park and explore the park's scenic cliffs and shore. Take a boat to the Flowerpot Island of the Fathom Five National Marine park where you can see the flowerpot rock columns, camp and explore.
