From the time you arrive at the Regal Point Elk Farm you know that you are in for a very special experience. Once you park your car you will proceed to the wagon and prepare for the short trip to the Sugar Shack.
The first thing you will notice is the sign. In 2013 this project was awarded "the most unique sign in Canada" by Sign Canada. See if you can find the hidden pictures and check out the family tree.
Enjoy the view of over 100 magnificent Elk as you pass by their fields on the way to the Sugar Shack. Once at the Shack you will be greeted by a friendly Rotarian, "Magic Mike" who will give you the inside track on the many fun activities available to you and your family.
The list is long and the choices many as to what to do next? Come and enjoy a traditional pancake meal, or the ever-so-popular Peaches and Cream pancakes. Maple syrup doesn’t get any fresher or more local as it is made just steps away from the dining hall. While in the dining hall, be sure to get your picture with SilverStar’s award winning antler, winner of North America’s elk antler competition the past three years running.
2022 we are changing things up a little. Full pancake meals will be served from both the indoor Dining Hall and outdoors from the General Store. Meals served from the General Store can by enjoyed at our outdoor picnic tables under cover.
MOUNT HAYMORE
Mount Haymore is definitely the kids favourite! Mount Haymore is a 3-layer high, giant playground complete with climbing and sliding fun for all. Be sure to get your I Climbed Mount Haymore sticker. Then its time to move over to BushPlay, a most unique play experience right in the bush. The merry-go-round is a highlight.
WILLIE WALK
The next experience is the Willie Walk. Find the 10 hidden action figures of Wiarton Willie hidden along a trail through the bush. Pick up a Willie Walk scoresheet before you start and mark them off as you find them. It isn’t easy but our Ranger Station guides will be happy to help you out.
There are 2 other trails that you might want to enjoy:
-
1) BLACK HOLE TRAIL: this is a 5-minute walk into the bush to see a geological
formation that could be described as a vertical cave. You will see signs on the
trees where the resident porcupine has been eating,
-
2) 1 Km LOOP TRAIL: this will burn off a few calories for you. The trail takes
you through the Maple bush and brings you back at the General Store.
PETTING ZOO & PONY RIDES
- once again, we have Glendale Farms joining us; and for a small price your kids can enjoy some animal fun
MAPLE EQUIPMENT TOUR:
