Not ready to say goodbye to summer?
Neither are we.
Fall arrives late in this part of the province, which means campers can extend their fair-weather excursions all through October!
Book a relaxing and rejuvenating midweek getaway at one of these parks:

Awenda Provincial Park
Open until October 14, 2025
Explore over 2,900 ha of forested land along the picturesque shores of Georgian Bay. The park’s trails, lakes, shorelines, fens, bogs, and campgrounds offer a mix of habitat for a variety of wildlife viewing opportunities.
Planned your trip after peak fall colours? Check out Awenda’s Bluff Trail. Views of Georgian Bay from this section of trail are especially spectacular during the leaf-free season.

Earl Rowe Provincial Park
Open until October 14, 2025
Earl Rowe is located on Toronto’s doorstep, just 85 km northwest.
Hike 11 km of in-park trails ranging from short jaunts to longer half-day treks. We recommend the 4 km Lookout Trail that takes hikers to the highest point of the park overlooking Earl Rowe and the surrounding area’s fall colours.
New to camping? Earl Rowe is your park!
If you’re visiting this fall, you might get the chance to see salmon migrating up the Boyne River to spawn. Keep an eye on the park’s social media for updates.

Selkirk Provincial Park
Open until October 14, 2025
RV campers: look no further. Selkirk is your perfect fall park.
Just 15 minutes east of Port Dover, it offers large grassy sites in beautiful surroundings. Many sites offer both electricity and pull-through access for larger RVs and trailers.
Enjoy a relaxing paddle through the park’s wetlands along Spring Creek or hike their leisurely Wheeler’s Walk Trail. Birders may be lucky enough to see the park’s resident Bald Eagles or spot owls around dusk.
If you need more reasons to give Selkirk a try, you’ll find them here.

Craigleith Provincial Park

Sauble Falls is the perfect place to wet your line and possibly land the big one. Anglers have the opportunity to hook salmon and Rainbow Trout well into the autumn.

Turkey Point Provincial Park

Spot orioles, hummingbirds, warblers, and more as they travel south for the winter.
If you enjoy mountain biking, this park is a great option for a fall trip! Mountain bike trails are available both within and adjacent to the park.

Rondeau Provincial Park
Open until November 9, 2025
There’s hardly a better spot in southern Ontario to see the colours of fall than on Rondeau’s hiking trails.
On the same latitude as part of northern California, this far south park sometimes stays warm until late October! Embrace those last fleeting moments of summer before a long winter ahead.
