MacGregor Point Park boasts ecological diversity. Seven kilometres of coast along the Lake Huron shoreline accommodate majestic migrating birds, exciting festivals and events, camping sites, a skating oval, marshes, swamps, and ponds.

This all-season destination offers individuals, families, and couples an adventure in one of Mother Nature’s best works in Ontario.

 

Here are six things to do to enjoy the unspoiled features of MacGregor Point Park during winter weekends:

Ice skating on the ice loop

One of Ontario’s best-kept secrets is the 400-metre outdoor skating oval at MacGregor Point. It makes for an unforgettable family experience, and trail lights are even available at the site for late-evening magical skating.

Feed the birds

Although most migratory birds head south during the winter months, some of the 200 species of birds found at MacGregor Park remain there. The visitor centre is also a fantastic spot to hand-feed nuthatches and chickadees.

Glide on Cross-country skis

The park offers 11 kilometres of groomed trails and several kilometres of ungroomed roads suitable for cross-country skiing. The Deer Run Trail is a gentle trail that takes skiers through hardwood forests and wetland areas.

If you want to go winter walking, enjoy the Huron Fringe Boardwalk trail near the Visitor Centre.

Join for Special Events

 

With fun discovery boxes available for kids and adults alike, combined with live and interactive displays and exhibits – everyone can learn about MacGregor Point at the Visitor Centre. Pick up something at the nature gift shop to remember your trip to the park.

During March break and family day weekends, special activities are held at the park.

Go winter camping

Go backcountry camping, or seek comfort in one of the sixteen yurts at the MacGregor Point Park. Reservations are highly recommended as these get booked out fast. A heated comfort station is offered for your convenience, and campsites are surrounded by trees in private areas.

Winter RVing

This unique RV program attracts visitors that stay for a weekend, several weekends, or even all winter. They get to socialize with the other RVers, keep warm at the electrical sites, and have a safe place to park their RV during the winter months.
