Manitoulin Island Tour
The Island is calling. Those that have ridden before say that something special happens the second they lay 2 wheels on it. It’s a feeling, a culture, a realization that time stands still. Ojibwe First Nations understood this mythical essence long ago, and aptly named it ‘Spirit Island’.
Exploring Manitoulin by motorcycle is perhaps the best way. You feel the road, you smell the crispness in the air, you marvel at how connected yet unconnected you really are.
Connect using the Georgian Bay Coastal Route.
Must See: Bridal Veil Falls, Chi-Cheemaun Ferry, Meldrum Bay Inn, Gordon’s Park
