Day 2
After a leisurely breakfast, head for Wiarton (Hwy 6 north, or the scenic route along Grey Rd 1), making sure to check out Skinner’s Bluff (accessible off Grey Road 26 and township roads 23-24 and 20-21) on the way. A short but rigorous hike on the Bruce Trail will lead you to this magnificent bluff for a spectacular view of the surrounding rural landscape and Georgian Bay. When you’re finished, make your way up the Bruce Peninsula to Tobermory (Hwy 6 North). Stop at the Parks Canada Visitor Centre, and climb the look-out tower for a bird’s eye view of Georgian Bay. Spend the rest of the afternoon, wandering the streets and watching the boat traffic in this picturesque fishing village.
