Ontario Fall Colours Present Early Color Contrast

Ontario fall colours are starting!

Early changes are appearing north of Toronto in the areas of the Madawaska Valley and Hastings Highlands.

This photo taken on Labour Day south of Barry's Bay east of Algonquin Park area shows some interesting early contrasts between the reds of the maples, and the greens of the pines with a beautiful blue sky in the background.

For a full range of fall colour road trips and drives see the fall colours page and fall color reports. More than 20 Ontario fall road trips are available.

Ontario Travel Road Trips-Highway 60 North to Ottawa

Wilno Ontario

A road trip into the Algonquin Park region of Ontario will take most visitors across Highway
60 running from Huntsville through Algonquin Park and into the Ottawa Valley. One of Canada's unique communities is the Ottawa Valley town of Wilno-Canada's first Polish Settlement. Please slow down and take a moment to savour the well kept Kaszebe Heritage Park across from the famous Wilno Tavern. The park is steeped in local history dating back to the turn of the century. The major industry was logging and the Ottawa--Parry Sound railroad was operating.

The area in the hills around Barry's Bay and Wilno is famous for Kashubian Floral Paintings on the barns and buildings, and in art work and drawings. The Wilno Tavern, has great Polish dishes and local musical talent provides entertainment throughout the week. Wilno is a short drive East of Barry's Bay.
Accommodation in the Barry's Bay area can be found at Barry's Bay-Combermere resorts.
