What's In North Bay?

Located on the shores of beautiful Lake Nipissing and Trout Lake, North Bay is a vibrant city of 56,000. It is strategically located in the centre of Ontario and sits at the crossroad of highways 11 & 17. The city has something to offer during all four seasons. Boating, fishing and hiking in the spring, summer and fall, snowmobiling and skiing in the winter. Often referred to as the "Gateway to the North", North Bay is the perfect area to start your Northern experience. Join us for a visit!.


North Bay Waterfront

Here you can stroll along the shore of Lake Nipissing or relax on the beach. Listen to a free concert regularly put on during the summer by local musicians. Prefer to get moving? Then bike or roller blade on the new Kate Pace Way, named after North Bay's gold medal-winning downhill skier. You may even see Kate!! Take a ride on the Heritage Railway Company's Mini-Train and hand-carved carousel. The 24 passenger train takes you on a 2.5km ride along the city's waterfront.

It's at the waterfront that you'll also find the Chief Commanda II, a twin-hull boat that offers a choice of cruises on picturesque Lake Nipissing, including brunch and dinner cruises and private party charters.

North Bay's Waterfront is home to special events including the St. Jean Baptist Celebrations in late June, Canada Day Celebrations on July 1, and the Heritage Festival on the Civic Holiday Weekend in early August.

And there are so many more things for you to experience and explore in North Bay. Not the least of which is hiking up the trails from Duchesnay Falls to the College Education Centre, home to Canadore College and Nipissing University.
