Huronia Lookout

The County of Simcoe, in partnership with Springwater Township, Friends of the Minesing Wetlands, Chippewa Tri Council, Rotary Club of Barrie and the Nottawasaga Valley Conservation Authority are pleased to annouce the creation of the Huronia Lookout.

The Huronia Lookout provides views extending 40 km, including those of the entire Minesing Wetlands, as well as the Niagara Escarpment, Blue Mountain, Georgian Bay, the Oro Ridge Moraine, the Village of Minesing  and the Ancient Glacial Lake Algonquin Shoreline.

Located on the western side of County Road 28 (George Johnston Road) south of Snow Valley Road, the Lookout will be constructed adjacent to Fort Willow and the 9 Mile Portage, an important historical transportation route linking Lake Simcoe and Georgian Bay.
