The last lock in the historic Trent-Severn Waterway is the gateway to Georgian Bay and the smallest lock in the system.
The amazing fact- it’s still hand-operated the way it was 100 years ago! Stop by in the summer and watch the boats drop to the level of Georgian Bay. It’s a relaxing few hours with great scenery and history.
