Once again this fall we will be promoting the Lake of Bays Scenic Drive. It’s a self-guided 80 km driving loop with stops in the charming hamlets of Baysville, Dwight, and Dorset. The Scenic Drive offers spectacular views of lakes, rock cuts, and magnificent fall colours in September and October.

A map is available on the scenic drive page on the Township website and a social media campaign will be launched on September 10 to promote the route.

This is a great tool to encourage people to support local businesses around the Township so please like/share and comment on the posts to promote YOUR business.
