HistoryOutdoor

Presqu’ila Provincial Park is located on the north shore of Lake Ontario and was established in 1922. At the time, the park became popular due to its large sandy beaches, summer hotel, golf course, and other recreational activities. Although the golf course and hotel are no longer operating, the park is still popular among campers and park visitors.

You can unwind at Presqu’ila Provincial Park by staying at any of its 397 camping sites, hiking on trails that total 16 kilometres, and attending numerous special events such as History Weekend, Parks Day, and Canada Day celebrations!
