Join Naturalist Robin Tapley at Red Leaves Resort this weekend on one of two guided nature walks this Saturday. The nature walks which depart from the Wallace Marina at 10 am and 1 pm allow participants an opportunity to discover the trails that meander through hardwood and coniferious forests. We'll explore the boardwalk which winds its way through cotton grass, pitcher plants and sphagum moss while watching for fall migrants search for food during their southern migration. From the Observation Deck we'll be rewarded with a birds eye view of one of Ontario's magnificent wetlands surrounded in a cavalacade of fall colours. For information or to make a reservation please call the Red Leaves Discovery Centre at 1 705 765 8799.

Muskoka Fall colours leaf changes September 27, 2007
The Ministry of Tourism updates indicate The Parry Sound and Muskoka regions are starting to see some good fall colour with a 50% change at this time with some pockets of bright orange and red. Over the next few weeks, a boat cruise of these areas is a wonderful way to enjoy the fall colours. Views from the observation decks at the fire tower lookouts at Parry Sound should provide splendid views. See Muskoka Fall Colour Routes and Muskoka fall color drives.
