Whether just passing through or spending the day on the Hav-A-Ball snowmobile tour, you've got to make a stop in Apsley for the Swiss Bear Restaurant. Go for the Schnitzel or a Monte Christo sandwich and you won't be disappointed!

This snowmobile loop offers an exciting mix of well-established trails that wind through the majestic forests, rugged terrain, and picturesque highlands of east Central Ontario’s premier snowbelt, including its namesake Bon Echo Provincial Park. With many staging locations, places to eat, stay, and fuel up, and all just a short drive from the 401 corridor, the Bon Echo Loop is one of Southern Ontario’s most popular loops.

Four cottages with all the amenities are available for rent any time of year. Docking facilities are available for each of them and there is plenty of parking for vehicles and trailers. The perfect home base to explore Madoc and the surrounding area. In the summer the lake is a great fishing destination, and in the winter sledders take advantage of the proximity to the Centre Hastings Snowmobile Club's Trail 800.

Stop in and check out the log house, school house building and church to learn about the logging history of the area.

Open July and August. Call ahead to book an appointment.

Arnprior's only gastropub features 20 craft beer taps, two wines on tap, a seasonal menu, scratch kitchen and a cozy atmosphere that welcomes everyone.
