Egan Chutes Provincial Park is your next must-visit! Just outside Bancroft, this hidden gem is perfect for a last autumn adventure.
📜 Egan Chutes isn’t just scenic; it has a story. This spot was named after John Egan, an influential Irish lumber baron from the 1800s who helped establish the area’s lumber trade. Now, it’s a quiet place to soak up history and nature in one scenic visit.
🥾 The hike starts off easy with a short walk to the first waterfall. But if you’re up for it, there is also a trail that extends to 10 km, where you’ll find two more waterfalls tucked away in lush surroundings. Bring your camera—these chutes are fall photo gold!

Sometimes, all you need for your adventure is a good chat with ChatGPT 😉. I asked for a waterfall hike within 2 hours of home, and it delivered: Egan Chutes Provincial Park!
If you haven’t been, this hidden gem near Bancroft is a waterfall wonderland. There’s a short and sweet trail to the first falls, but if you’re up for more, you can extend the hike to about 10 km to see two more incredible waterfalls. The sound, the mist, and that perfect photo op… 📸

Want to catch one of nature’s most unique autumn shows? This weekend might be your last chance to see the larches at Mer Bleue Bog near Ottawa before they lose their golden glow! 🍂
Mer Bleue is a stunning and rare spot, known for its boreal-like landscape. It’s one of the largest bogs in southern Ontario, with boardwalk trails weaving through the wetland, giving you up-close views of unique plants, wildlife, and that iconic golden hue of the tamarack (larch) trees.
Larches are unique—they’re the only conifers that turn golden and lose their needles in fall. And it happens quickly, so if you’re planning a visit, this weekend is your chance to soak in that magic! Bring your camera and your warm layers! 🍁✨
Don’t wait! Tag a friend who loves fall adventures and make it happen before the season slips away.
📍 Mer Bleue Bog, Ottawa
