Places to visit

A few places we think you should visit while in Kaszuby area..

TOM'S LOOKOUT - It's a hill with amazing view all around. It is also known as a Blueberry Hill. There are actually two ways to get on the hill. The first is from Old Barry's Bay Road close to Baraki and the second is from hwy 62. Please be careful and ask the owner first if you are going to trespass private properties. If you dare you may try to enter Tom's lookout from Gun lake through wild bush forest..
Do not forget your camera. You would like to make some pictures on the top.

   THE OPEONGO LINE TOUR
Barry's Bay is the final stop of the Opeongo Line Tour. The Opeongo Line is a road that was developed in the 1800's to assist in the colonization of the area between the Village of Castleford and the Village of Barry's Bay.
In the Fall of the year, many folks enjoy the lovely ride through the countryside, taking in the Celebration of the Flaming Leaf while visiting many of the local artisans along the way. And if you've the stamina and a good mountain bike, the trek is even more enjoyable. Every year we find more and more folks doing the "Mountain Tour".
You can begin or end your tour just outside Barry's Bay. The trek starts (or ends) near Carson Lake Provincial Park (the Opeongo Line signs are posted), go east on Highway 60 through Barry's Bay, turn right onto Yantha Lake Road and follow the winding country road through Hopefield, Brudenell, Foymount, Cormac, Clontarf and Esmonde. At Highway 41 turn south to the 132 and go east to Dacre, Shamrock and onto Renfrew. In Renfrew take County Road 20 north to Lac des Chats near Castleford. According to the Ottawa Valley Tourist Association the tour is about 150 kilometres and takes approximately 2.5 hours to complete by automobile. But there are many places to see along the way, so be sure to plan an entire day. Don't forget to take your camera - no matter what time of year, there are some spectacular scenes.
