Immerse in diverse human tales along the shores of the Michipicoten and Magpie Rivers. We will unearth the olden chronicles of the First People, locate the areas of fur trade establishments, and tread the pathways of the voyageurs, loggers, artists, and miners who significantly contribute to Wawa’s present-day history. Our trek of 1.5 kilometres will escort us to three waterfalls, concealed scenic points, and features an ideal picnic spot — a location where a Group of Seven artist has once painted.
