Wawa

Tucked into the Canadian Shield near Wawa Lake in northern Ontario, Wawa is a place whose character is shaped by boreal forest, rugged rock and the nearby waters of Lake Superior. The town lies on Highway 17, part of the Trans-Canada Highway, in the Algoma District, where the Michipicoten River reaches Lake Superior south of the community. Its best-known landmark is the oversized Canada Goose monument, a reference to the Ojibwe word “wewe,” commonly interpreted as “wild goose,” from which Wawa takes its name. Nearby Lake Superior Provincial Park protects a long stretch of Superior shoreline and backcountry. Find related webcams in the surrounding area to build a fuller picture of Wawa and Algoma.
