Peterborough
& the Kawarthas offers a multitude of attractions
and events for all ages. Rich in heritage, the
region is host to an amazing array of museums,
cultural exhibitions, indoor and outdoor galleries
and theatres, Aboriginal heritage
attractions and historical sites,
as well as a vibrant arts community.
For those drawn more to the outdoors, natural
attractions such as our parks
and conservation areas, the Trent-Severn
Waterway, and our 134 shining lakes, create
opportunities for activities such as waterway
cruises, wildlife viewing, and soft
adventure tours. Family attractions can
be found throughout the Kawarthas as well, be
it a zoo, sugar bush, sandy beach, waterpark or
go-cart track.
Unique special events are hosted year-round, both
within the downtown core and in the surrounding
picturesque towns and villages. Well-known favorites
such as the Peterborough Summer Festival of
Lights, Lakefield Literary Festival, Havelock
Country Jamboree, Peterborough Festival
of Trees and Buckhorn Wildlife Art Festival, are
complimented by a wealth of fall fairs, jazz festivals,
craft shows, studio tours, agricultural expositions
and Native heritage celebrations.
