This Father's Day, treat the father figure in your life to what they really want — fresh air, open water, and the kind of peace and quiet that only the Great Canadian Wilderness can deliver.

On National Indigenous Peoples Day, June 21st, we honour the rich cultures, histories, and enduring contributions of the First Nations, Métis, and Inuit peoples who have called this land home since time immemorial — and whose deep connection to the lakes, forests, and rivers of the Great Canadian Wilderness lives on in every corner of this region we are privileged to share.
The artwork is Cultivate Love by Isaac Murdoch (Bombgiizhik), an Anishinaabe artist from the Serpent River First Nation, and a member of the Fish Clan. Isaac grew up in a traditional setting, hunting, fishing, and learning from elders. His art carries the marks of these learnings.

On National Trails Day, June 6th, we celebrate the extraordinary network of trails that wind through the Great Canadian Wilderness — from the rugged ridgelines of Algonquin Park to the breathtaking Georgian Bay Coastal Trail, the historic Nipissing Road, and hundreds of kilometres of backcountry routes, waterfront paths, and Canadian Shield single track that make this region a hiker's, biker's, ATVer's, and paddler's paradise.

The latest eatery in Port Carling is open and it needs to go on your summer bucket list! @lafocacciaportcarling is serving up monster-sized sandwiches, made fresh, at their new Steamboat Bay location (under the flagpole).

On World Otter Day, we celebrate the North American river otter — one of our region's most playful and charismatic residents, equally at home sliding down a riverbank or surfacing with a fish in the mirror-still waters of an Algonquin lake at dawn. Once severely depleted by the fur trade and habitat loss, river otters have made a remarkable comeback across Ontario thanks to cleaner waterways and conservation efforts — a hopeful reminder that when we protect our lakes and rivers, the wildlife that depends on them thrives too.
