Getaway Country - Tourist Information

Map.  Click here for larger image. Getaway Country contains a little of all of Ontario's features to experience. Running eastward from Greater Toronto, the flat Southern Ontario plain gives way to the rugged terrain and looking-glass lakes of the Canadian Shield. Countless creeks and streams quilt together a patchwork of oak and pine forest, neatly farmed valleys, rich wetlands and outcrops of black granite. As with all of Ontario, there are plenty of lakes in this region whose waterways are particularly legendary. From the great Lake Simcoe, through the Kawarthas and the Trent-Severn Waterway system, to the picturesque Bay of Quinte in Lake Ontario, you can travel by boat through some of the most beautiful scenery in Ontario. Travel Getaway Country and learn what it really means to get away.
