With the outstanding natural resources that are plentiful in the Bay of Quinte region, it’s no surprise that we have some of the most beautiful parks in the country.
We have five provincial parks nearby including Sandbanks, Lake on the Mountain and North Beach in Prince Edward County, Presqu’ile in Brighton and Ferris in Campbellford. These parks offer some of the most picturesque scenery and campgrounds in the country and lots of great options for hiking, walking and taking in all the best that nature has to offer.
Here are some can’t miss parks in the region:
