ABOUT FENELON FALLS

This historic village nestled on the shores of Cameron Lake is a visitor’s delight.

It is also one of Canada’s Trail Town Communities, part of a program that features the historic Trent-Severn Waterway as the trail giving visitors opportunities to explore the outdoor activities, pristine lakes and rivers, great shopping and dining hand in hand with arts, culture and heritage.

The village is a great destination for families, day-trippers and seasonal visitors. The Waterfront offers the beach park, splashpad, playground, beach volleyball, butterfly benches, Victoria County Rail Trail, Bur Oak Grove, Allen Wood Play Space, and One Room School.

Only a step from downtown Fenelon Falls, Lock 34 is located on an island. Boaters should take extra care while approaching the lock and watch for valve discharge or intake.

One of the most popular attractions is the miniature “Niagara Falls” flowing through the limestone gorge. This 7-metre wonder of nature can be viewed from the east side of Colborne Street Bridge.
