Pancake Bay Provincial Park
Stacks up to one great adventure
The outdoors are yours to enjoy with flights from Stephenville to Sault Ste. Marie.
Pancake Bay Provincial Park is one of the more popular parks in Northern Ontario. Boasting hundreds of campsites, spend a night on the shores of Lake Superior or inland on a backcountry trail.
Originating during the fur trading era, the park’s name is the stuff of legend. The voyageurs travelling through the wilderness would often stop in Pancake Bay overnight before heading to Sault Ste. Marie. They dined on pancakes and stocked up on supplies in the city.
Today, you only need to pack a picnic basket to enjoy a sunrise on the beach. Spread out a blanket for sunbathing, and then cool down with a dip in Lake Superior. Paddlers can take a canoe out for a cruise along the waters and watch the shore transition from a sandy nook to a craggy coastline.
Two trails winding into the woods also offer some inland adventures. On the Pancake Bay Nature Trail, you can take a scenic stroll across the beach and wetlands. Depending on the season, pick handfuls of berries and hazelnuts, while sneaking a glance at the local wildlife.
Opt for a hike on the Lookout Trail for a picturesque view of the bay and Whitefish Point across the border. The channel between the United States and Canada carries a grisly reputation as the “graveyard of the Great Lakes”. The last notable wreck in the area was the SS Edmund Fitzgerald in 1975.
Sail into Pancake Bay and hike along its trails when you fly from Stephenville to Sault Ste. Marie.
