Alongside our rivers and forests is the Niagara Escarpment which forms a dividing ridge through the County - easily accessed via the Bruce Trail or the Mono Cliffs Provincial Park.

Our countryside is home to charming towns, local museums, heritage shops and wineries that offer break-taking views, wildlife and culture.
