Lake Eugenia in fall

Lake Eugenia is Grey County's largest inland lake and provides excellent paddling. There are canoe, kayak & motorboat rentals available at Cedars of Lake Eugenia, and canoe rentals are included for guests renting cottages there. There is some great fishing within the lake!

Paddler on foggy lake

The Saugeen River canoe route begins in the Town of Hanover and heads west to Lake Huron. Though it flows through agricultural areas, these are only visible occasionally through the forests, which line the bank of the river.
