We are the Hills of Headwaters, the highest elevation in Southern Ontario. The region is the birthplace of four major river systems, the Nottawasaga, the Credit, the Humber, and the Grand, hence the name—Headwaters! From here, clear, cold springs bubble up from the earth, pick up rain and melting snow and gather into rivers that flow north, east, south and west into the Great Lakes. On their way, our rivers have carved valleys deep and wide that cleave the Niagara Escarpment, creating slopes for skiers, and breathtaking vistas for sightseers.
Of course where you have rivers, you have fish; where you have green forests you have game; where you have meadows and fens you have birds; and you will find all those in abundance. But if you come to the Hills of Headwaters only to explore, ski, fish, hike, watch birds, take pictures, paint or hunt, you’re missing half the fun.
Artists live and work here: sculptors, potters, painters, carvers, writers, musicians, actors, photographers, chefs (If you think food is not an artist’s medium, we have some places where you should dine). Headwaters agriculture helps feed Canadians and brings its cornucopia to farmers’ markets. Our luxurious inns and bed-and-breakfasts welcome travelers with comfort that is much more than a nice chair or warm bed. You will feel right at home. The sights, tastes, and sounds will make your experience a lasting one, filled with fond memories.
On behalf of all the people who look forward to meet you, welcome to the Hills of Headwaters. Stop in. Look around. And enjoy yourself.
