Upper Stony Lake GeoPaddle

Wolfe Island GeoPaddle

Parry Sound GeoPaddle

Over a billion years ago, a huge mountain range formed here, putting so much pressure on the rock below that it recrystallized into the metamorphic rock gneiss. Take a paddle through Parry Sound and see this ancient rock up close!

Upper Stony Lake GeoPaddle

Paddle through Eels Creek and out into Upper Stony Lake, and enjoy looking at some beautiful metamorphic and igneous rocks in and around the water. Learn about the dramatic mountain building event that occurred over a billion years ago that formed much of this rock.

Wolfe Island GeoPaddle

Go for a 2-hour paddle along the north shore of Wolfe Island, located just south of Kingston, Ontario. Learn what this area looked like 450 million years ago, and what processes are still influencing the local geology today.
