SCENIC CAVES AND BLUE MOUNTAIN
Overview
Join us for one day tour to Blue Mountain region. Visit Scenic Caves, Blue Mountain village and take a gondola on the top of Blue Mountain.
We will start with the Scenic Caves hike. We will walk over the Suspension Bridge from were you can take beautiful pictures of Georgian Bay. We will explore caves and caverns after Suspension Bridge walk.
Scenic Caves was once home to the Petun First Nations people and currently situated within one of Canada’s 18 UNESCO sites.
Descend into the crevasse and explore a labyrinth of caves and caverns 70 ft below the surface. The rewards are plentiful with multiple panoramic vistas of Georgian Bay along limestone cliff edges.
Our next stop will be in Blue Mountain village. You can bring your lunch or have lunch at one of the restaurants in the village. You will also have enough time for sightseeing and gift shopping.
Last stop will be at Morrison Pumpkin Farm, where we will walk through the corn maze and take pictures of different colors and shapes of pumpkins.
Our guided tour is good for beginner to intermediate hikers. You don't need any experience and solo travelers are welcome to join the tour.
Scenic Caves
Venture deep inside the mountain. Explore a labyrinth of caves and crevices. Search near Ekarenniondi for the shadows which marked paths to the mysterious underworld. Explore the hidden natural fortress which sheltered the Petun people from their enemies. Descend into the ice cave – a crevasse so deep and cold that snow and ice often remain here through early summer.
Suspension Bridge
Fun and adventure at the highest point on the Niagara Escarpment, venture across Southern Ontario’s longest suspension bridge and see the magnificent views.
Please note, that itinerary might change in case the Scenic Caves will reach a full capacity. If this happens, we will be hiking Singhampton Caves instead of Scenic Caves.
