Northeastern Ontario: Discover The Seven

We're Outside.

You’ve heard of The Six? Time to meet The Seven

Just a few hours north of Southern Ontario lies one of the province's most spectacular regions—from Killarney to Moosonee, Manitoulin Island to Mattawa—and everything in between, this autumn is the perfect time to plan your first (or fifteenth!) visit. 

Our dynamic cities are perfect for weekend trips and packed with museums, art galleries, and restaurants. Up here we've got Nordic spas and innovative brewpubs in Timmins (along with some excellent desserts), the Canadian Polar Bear Habitat in Cochrane, the Big Nickel and a vibrant patio culture in Sudbury, innovative dining on the Temiskaming Tour Loop, diners and waterfalls in North Bay, and there's lots to explore in our historic small towns, too. Stay in one of our design-savvy motels and check out one of the famous Group of Seven sites—like White Pine Lodge and Dreamer's Rock.

Whatever activity you're looking for, it's here in The Seven.
