Ouimet Canyon Provincial Park

Great stop along the Trans-Canada Highway. It's a bit of a drive to get to the Canyon but the view is worthwhile. There is a lot of parking and the entry fee is only $2 per person at the front of the park which was on the honor system at this time of the year (off-season). The walk to the canyon is short and well-maintained. There were 3 viewing platforms along the path.

Another ‘must see’ when exploring around Thunder Bay. The walk is easily done in an hour. Spectacular views. Well maintained viewing areas and walking paths. Very family friendly (pet friendly too!). Highly suggest doing Ouimet Canyon, Eagle Canyon and the Terry Fox Memorial as a day trip (all just east of Thunder Bay).

Stunning Views - The view from the Viewing Platforms is amazing and the walk from the parking lot to the platforms takes less than 30 minutes. The trails are taken care of and above average as most of the surface is crushed limestone. There are barriers only at the platforms so Parents with small children should be careful. There is a $2 Per Person Fee (Honour System) that nobody seemed to be paying while We were there.

At $2 a head (honour system) to access the canyon its well worth the short drive from the No. 17 highway. Clean and well maintained trails. A bit of debris (road construction sign and dead trees) on the canyon floor below one of the viewing platforms took ever so slightly from the overall breathtaking scene.

$2 per person (honour payment system). Very well maintained facility with stunning views on the two lookout points. You can sneak off the main trail to the edge of the canyon at points to experience how the canyon would have been without the two lookout platforms, but if you fall no doubt about it, you'll be dead!

Randomly, has 4G cell service here as well!
