Gravenhurst

Few towns in Ontario have a history as closely tied to steamship travel on Lake Muskoka as Gravenhurst. Set at the lake’s southern end, the town belongs to Muskoka’s Canadian Shield country, where granite outcrops and dense forest meet a chain of freshwater lakes. The Muskoka Wharf is the departure point for the heritage vessel RMS Segwun, whose story reaches back to the 1887 steamer Nipissing. Gravenhurst is also the birthplace of physician Norman Bethune; Bethune Memorial House preserves the home where he was born. Nearby Gull Lake adds another public waterfront to the town’s daily rhythm. Discover other points of interest through webcams located across Gravenhurst and Muskoka.
