Connects Lake Ontario to Georgian Bay Peterborough and the Kawarthas
Peterborough & the Kawarthas are alive with native heritage, recreational pursuits, superb accommodations, and a vibrant arts community. Marvel at the mechanics of the world's largest hydraulic lift lock in Peterborough on the Trent-Severn Waterway. Delve into nature, First Nations history and tradition on an interpretive Kawartha Spirit Walk with a tribal elder, sleep in a teepee or craft your own canoe paddle. Feel the beat of ancient Aboriginal drums as traditional Ojibway First Nation regalia, music, dancing and chanting herald the annual Curve Lake Pow Wow at Whetung. Watch First Nation regalia interpreters re-enact pioneer life at the authentic 20-building village of Lang Pioneer Museum in Keene.

Explore the largest concentration of pictographs in North America - 900 birds, snakes, turtles and humans were chiseled into white marble rock face 1,200 years ago at Petroglyphs Provincial Park near Burleigh Falls. The underground wonders at the Warsaw Caves Conservation Area and Campground hold fascinating ancient fossils. Feel centuries-old spirits at beautiful Serpent Mounds Park near Keene on picturesque Rice Lake - a scenic and historically significant place of Aboriginal settlement.
