Amazing Places

What Are Amazing Places?

You will know an Amazing Place the moment you see it. It may be a vista so powerful and majestic that it will literally take your breath away. Or, it may be a scene that will simply cause you to pause, and soak it all in.

Amazing Places connect us with nature. They are must-visit destinations where we can experience the exceptional beauty of eastern Georgian Bay and learn about our unique environment and cultural history. They tell a story about the ecology and cultures of our region, helping us to live more sustainably in this landscape.

There are two amazing places in the Town of Parry Sound the Rotary & the Algonquin Regiment Waterfront Trail and the Tower Hill Lookout.
