Autumn colours hitting their peak

Agawa Canyon’s Tour Train is particularly busy at this time of year. The tourists come by the hundreds to northern Ontario, to take in nature’s incredible beauty. The fall colours are a sight to behold.

People from Europe and Asia board the train in Sault Ste. Marie and head north for the day to take in the unimaginable hues.

The train takes visitors 114 miles into the forest stopping for a 90 minute lunch at a location that has 3 waterfalls in short walking distance, and a 300 step climb to a look-out over the canyon.

But you don’t have to go into the wilderness to experience the beauty. The fall colours are at their peak this week and next.  And whether you are in the city or the countryside, the upcoming holiday weekend may provide the opportunity to take some time to appreciate the sight.  By the end of the month most leaves will have fallen to the ground.
