I did a Forest Therapy walk in the morning, followed by tea with Tom and Dee in the guest shop, a hike on The Bruce Trail loop on their property, and a walk in their beautiful gardens, including a sound garden and labyrinth. Tom and Dee are generous and welcoming hosts, stewarding this 100-acre property for the enjoyment of their guests and future generations. Easy to spend a day here -- or longer, if you arrange to stay overnight in your own RV or their accommodations.

Bluewater Park

Bluewater Park was a great spot to stop and enjoy Wiarton's view of the water. And it honours Wiarton Willie with a statue.

Bruce's Caves Conservation Area

Reviewed By isajohn - Toronto, Canada

While hiking the Bruce Trail we took a small detour off the main trail to go to the caves. You HAVE to see this if you're in the area. It's stunning.

Spirit Rock Conservation Area

Reviewed By Alexis199 - Mount Washington, United States

Great place to stop if you’re in the area. The staircase is a little nerve racking to use, but it’s safe. There’s a two person limit on the staircase at one time. At the bottom of the stair case there is a very rocky path with a handrail. From there you can walk a trail that runs along the edge of the water. That trail ends at a water treatment building on Bayview Street. There is a loop trial at the top of the staircase. This trail has a lot great views of the bay. It took us about an hour and a half to explore all the trails, but that’s with many picture stops. There is pay parking by the Corran at the trailhead, but you can park for free on the far north end of Bayview street. Go past the marina, and you’ll find pull off parking areas at the end of the road. There is a sign on the left side of the road explaining the legend of spirit rock. There are limited spots here, and it is a hike to the base of the staircase. Just park and walk straight past the water treatment building and you’ll see the trailhead. If you pay to park by the mansion, it is $6 CAD. You can download the McKay Pay app on your smart phone or call the phone number listed on the signs to pay by phone. There are a few picnic tables and a bathroom. There’s no running water so bring hand sanitizer. The road to the parking lot is gravel and one lane, but there are a few places to pull off if you meet a car. Drive very slow, there are a lot of potholes! Overall, the hike is beautiful with great views. It’s worth the visit.
