This Easy Ontario Hike Will Take You To An Epic Lookout Over A Beautiful Blue Bay

Always take the scenic route. 🌞

Staff Writer

Find your new happy place. This hiking trail in Ontario will take you to a spectacular panoramic lookout over a blue bay.

Only one hour and 30 minutes from Ottawa, Landon Bay boast multiple nature paths to explore, including the short Lookout Trail.

It is a quick uphill trek that only takes a few minutes and leads to a flat rock vista over the bay and Saint Lawrence River.

Once you arrive, you'll want to take a seat and soak in the postcard-worthy vista that Parks Canada describes as "the best natural view in the Thousand Islands area."

The serene sight is worth every step and makes a fantastic weekend adventure the next time you crave some fresh air.

Thousand Islands National Park

Price: $6.80 per vehicle

Address: 302 Thousand Islands Pkwy., Lansdowne, ON

Why You Need To Go: You can easily spend the afternoon hiking all the paths, like the Donevan Trail, where you'll see an impressive arched stone gate.
