Where to Experience Sault Ste. Marie's True Colours!

It's finally the best time of the year! Head outside, feel the fresh air on your face, and get moving in nature!

Mockingbird Hill Farm

Mockingbird Hill Farm is the romantic dream of Farmer Bob, who delves deep into his Metis roots to recreate his heritage. The Farm depicts a typical horse-drawn homestead farm with the pioneer's menagerie of animals: a few pigs, sheep, goats, cows, chickens, ducks, turkeys, cats, and dogs.

Get Lost in the A-Maize-ing Corn Maze!
The Corn Maze is a highlight of the season, with a walking trail puzzle cut through the towering corn stalks. Walking through is a conquest. There are checkpoints throughout the Maze that will document your journey, and the design is different each year! It's so much fun for every age!

Located at 943 Landslide Rd, Sault Ste. Marie, ON

Fort Creek

The Fort Creek extension of the HUB Trail, is a 5 km/3.1 mile (out and back) stretch of paved pathways and bridges winding through the peaceful wooded Fort Creek Conservation Area, including a bird’s eye view from two bridges of the wetlands below. The primary purpose of the Fort Creek Conservation Area is flood control, but it also provides a great benefit to animals as a habitat area, and to us for recreational enjoyment.
