Trip Highlights
Agawa Canyon Tour Train
The train departs from Sault Ste. Marie train terminal at 8 AM and returns at approximately 5:30 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.

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 pull up a bench and watch the Agawa River slowly flow peacefully by.
You will have breakfast in the dining car on the train as it rolls towards the canyon. A boxed picnic lunch is also included that you can eat either when we stop in the canyon or on the train on the return journey back to Sault Ste. Marie. |
Lake Superior Fall Colours Bus Excursion
|
Our bus drive heads north along the Trans-Canada Highway from Sault Ste. Marie heading towards Wawa. After 10 km or so you will encounter one of the first real reasons to take this drive ... Mile Hill. Mile Hill will afford you an amazing view of the region’s forests as you descend along it.
The road follows closely along the coast of Lake Superior, as you pass Batchewana Bay and Pancake Bay. The ancient lava that helped form the Canadian Shield is evident here along with multi-coloured granite and quartz. We will make a stop along the way to view the Chippewa falls and also at the Canadian Carver and Agawa Crafts. Family owned and operated for over 30 years, Agawa Indian Crafts and the Canadian Carver remain dedicated to providing a wide array of authentic and unique crafts and artwork by Canadian and First Nation artisans. For those who are interested in doing some hiking, you will be able to visit the Agawa Pictographs that are located in Lake Superior Provincial Park. Although it's a 15 minute steep hike from the highway to see the pictographs, it is well worth the effort to see these 400 year old paintings on rock, created by the Ojibwa People. And for those not interested in the hike, there will plenty of other picturesque spots for you to enjoy the vista of Lake Superior. |
