Magnetawan Ontario is a historic village located between Lake
Cecebe & Ahmic Lake on the beautiful Magnetawan River. It was
aptly named by the Algonquin natives, ’Swiftly
flowing River’. |
Explore our waterways - historic locks
and dams, ghost towns, turn-of-the-century cemeteries,
corduroy roads and abandoned homesteads along an unparalleled
picturesque roadway.
The quiet country roads surrounding the village are ideal
for mountain
biking, driving, hiking, or even horseback riding
and become a psychedelic cavalcade of colour during the transitory
days, leading from summer into fall.
And let's not forget the bounty of birds
and wildlife that
can be observed throughout the year. For the “birdwatcher”,
don't forget your favorite bird book and your binoculars
as, they are a must in this region.
Not to be out done by anyone else, this river system
offers boating, swimming, fishing or just plain relaxing
and lounging around.
Whether you are an avid fisher or a
recreational angler,
the pickerel, pike, bass and trout will
give you a good fight
and provide hours of enjoyment.
You can put your boat in the water in the
Village of Burk's Falls and travel through scenic Lake
Cecebe through the historic
locks and on to Ahmic Harbour, thus following the historic
route, used by many Steamships of the early days. |
