Written By a Newbie to the Kawarthas

After 25 years of living in the suburbs of the Greater Toronto Area, I traded traffic and sidewalks for forest trails and lakeshore drives. Since moving to the Kawarthas in 2022, I’ve been exploring this beautiful region one small-town stroll, lakeside lookout, and butter tart at a time. I write this blog to share what I’ve discovered so fellow newcomers, visitors and even long-time locals can enjoy it too. You can read my full author bio here.

Escape on a river kayaking tour

A river kayaking tour is better than lake kayaking. With no boat traffic it's quieter. You'll feel like you've escaped into the wilderness.
