The Trent-Severn is the spine of this trip, and the lock-side towns are the stops. Lock schedules vary through the season, so check timing before you plan to watch a boat go through.

  1. Day 1Start at the Peterborough Lift Lock, then follow the canal north through Lakefield and on to Bobcaygeon for the evening.
  2. Day 2Continue to Fenelon Falls, where the locks sit in the middle of the village, and return through Buckhorn.
