Located
90 minutes north of Toronto is a vast district of 1600 shimmering
lakes, thundering waterfalls and sheer granite cliffs, aromatic
pine forests and dense maple forests all wrapped in pure clean
air from above sea level, in some areas 1200 ft. With its
endless blue lakes, countless islands and stretches of sandy
beaches Muskoka Lakes is the perfect setting for a pleasurable
escape.
Throughout
Muskoka is a network of multi-purpose trails, including the
Trans-Canada Trail. Hikers, bikers, skiers, and snowmobilers
find their delights in the trails of Muskoka. Once primarily
a summer destination, Muskoka offers four seasons of natural
beauty, wildlife, and entertainment.
Because
of it's geographic location, its pristine natural environment
and designated parks, and its proximity to lakes and to one
of the most well-known provincial parks in Ontario - Algonquin
Park, Muskoka has become a premier travel destination.
Huge white
pines intended for ship building first brought settlers to
Muskoka, but the natural beauty made it a tourist destination
as early as the 1870s. Year-round visual delights and recreational
pursuits keep visitors coming back.
