What to do and see in Sault Ste. Marie, Northeastern Ontario: The Best Things to do Good for Couples

August 25, 2021 Nobuko Falco

Just a stone's throw across St. Mary's River from Michigan is quaint Sault Ste. Marie, known to locals simply as "The Soo". This out of the way destination offers attractions year round, with ample downhill and cross-country skiing as well as the Bon Soo Winter Carnival during the snowy months and scenic canal and lock boat tours, kayak excursions, parks and a beautiful promenade to be enjoyed when the sun comes out. OLG Casino Sault Ste. Marie is popular with locals and visitors all year long.

Situated in the original 1920' seaplane hangars at the St. Mary's river, the museum is a great glimpse into what goes into accessing and exploring the Canadian North, even today. I specifically want to point out the hands-on approach in the museum. Planes and other exhibits are not cordoned off asking visitors to stay away. You are encouraged to climb into planes, to get a feel for what it is like and to have a real experience. Well done! I would plan an hour and a half to go through.

Since we have our passports, my husband and I decided to cross the border to see something in Canada while staying in Sault Ste Marie. In less than 20 minutes, we were at this park. If you use Google maps, it will take you to a parking lot by Bible Fellowship Church. Do yourself a favor and put in Hiawatha Ice Cream. Just past this is another slightly hidden sign for Kinsmen Park (on the right). Follow this one track road down and you will be right at the base of the trail leading to the falls. There is a raised deck path back to them. I love waterfalls and this one did not disappoint. You can climb higher up and cross them via a small bridge. I would highly recommend coming to see this one.

Algoma Central Railway

It’s all aboard as you travel to the end of steel on 592-mile, round trip ‘Tour of the Line’ to the French Canadian community of Hearst, Ontario. Your journey begins at the Algoma Central Railway depot in downtown Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario, where you will board our regular passenger service for a day-long rail adventure that combines the rugged mixed forests of the Canadian Shield, experienced on the Agawa Canyon Tour Train, with the boreal forests of the Great Clay Belt region. In marked contrast to the mountainous Shield country, the Clay Belt region, home to the lordly moose, is a combination of level coniferous forests and great inland lakes teeming with northern pike and walleye.
