Within a sugar maple forest, surrounded by “The Bluffs”, is Saugeen Bluffs Conservation Area. If you’re looking for a fall day adventure, this Ontario park is the place to be.
About three hours northeast of Toronto is Saugeen Bluffs Conservation Area, located in Paisley, Ontario.
According to Saugeen Conservation, for the best fall views, the park has a recreational trail system that features a lookout over the scenic Saugeen River.
They have over 12 km of both recreational hiking and equine trails which are under a “use at your own risk” policy.

“This park features a store, showers, a laundromat, two playgrounds, wading pool, pay phone, small visitor centre, two picnic pavilions, canoe rentals, and much more,” per Saugeen Conservation.
Fees
