YOUR MUSKOKA GETAWAY
Known as ‘cottage country’, and named by National Geographic as one of the 20 ‘Best of the World’ places to visit, Muskoka is a natural playground for everyone who loves adventure, nature, art, theatre, cuisine, wineries, craft breweries, boutique shopping . . . and the list goes on.
The stunning Canadian Shield topography is the backdrop for a full menu of outdoor activities. Paddle or sail on the lakes and rivers. Cruise on a heritage steamship. Hike or cycle the trails. Climb a rock face. Backpack in the wilderness. Star gaze at the Dark Sky Preserve. Discover the beauty of a Muskoka winter. Ski the trails or the slopes. Skate on the lakes or forest ice trails. Snowshoe through the cranberry marsh. Climb a frozen waterfall. Rent a fat bike and cycle the trails. Team up with a husky for skijoring.
Packed with galleries and studios, Muskoka is home to Canada’s oldest art tour and host of Nuit Blanche North. The birthplace of Canadian summer theatre, Muskoka proudly presents exceptional plays and concerts. Some of Canada’s top chefs create imaginative cuisine with local produce, featuring the cranberries, maple syrup, wild blueberries, and native greens and mushrooms of the region. And there are countless shops offering distinctive products such as homemade soaps, pewter products, boutique clothing, and priceless antiques. Muskoka’s accommodation options include spa resorts, cottage resorts or rentals, hotels and motels, heritage bed-and-breakfast establishments, campgrounds, and backcountry camping.
Explore our suggestions for each season to help plan a great weekend in North Muskoka (Huntsville, Rosseau, Port Sydney, and Lake of Bays area) and South Muskoka (Bracebridge, Port Carling, Bala, and Gravenhurst area).
