Trip Highlights

Agawa Canyon Tour Train

The train departs from Sault Ste. Marie train terminal at 8 AM and returns at approximately 6:00 PM.

This one-day wilderness excursion will transport you 183 km. north of Sault Ste. Marie, over towering trestles, alongside pristine lakes and rivers and through awesome granite rock formations and vast forests.

All of the coaches have been recently refurbished and installed with extra large windows so we will truly get to appreciate the beauty of the region and experience the same rugged landscapes that inspired the Group of Seven to create some of Canada’s most notable landscape art.

Agawa Canyon Park

As the train pulls to a stop at Agawa Canyon park, you will have one and a half hours to experience the pristine beauty of the canyon up close. Enjoy scenic walks on trails leading to several waterfalls or experience an invigorating climb up over 300 stairs to the breathtaking lookout, perched 250 feet above the canyon floor. For those who are looking for something a little more relaxing, you can enjoy a peaceful break in the many picnic areas located throughout the park or just take a rest at a bench and watch the Agawa River flow peacefully by.

A boxed picnic lunch is also included that you can eat either when we stop in the canyon or on the train.

Big Nickel

The Big Nickel as it's known is a nine-metre (30 ft) replica of a 1951 Canadian nickel, located at the grounds of Dynamic Earth in Sudbury.

We will be stopping here for a short break and a photo opportunity at the base of the coin.
