Halfway Lake Provincial Park

We were pleasantly surprised with the beauty of this park! It’s not very well known compared to some of the larger provincial parks but the trails and swimming areas were fantastic.

Most of the sites were occupied by RVs but we were one of the few who pitched tents. Washrooms were very clean during the pandemic which we appreciated.

The beach areas were lovely with great views of the coniferous trees. It was shallow for a long stretch, perfect for those who like to play frisbee or football! You could hear the highway faintly but it didn’t take away from the experience in my opinion.

We hiked the Osprey Heights trail during our stay and it was quite the trek! A bit of difficult uphill climbing and could be dangerous if wet but well worth the hike overall. The lookout point was a great place to stop for lunch. I just wish there was more than one picnic table our lunchtime overlapped with another couple. It took about 3 hours to complete the entire hike, including the time it took us to stop and eat.

Love the nature

Peaceful, great beach, close to Sudbury

The beach is shallow, I didn't get further than waist deep all the way to the buoy line. Perfect for little kids. My four year old could walk around almost the whole swimming area on his own, he loved it. The hiking trail is a solid trek, with some fantastic views and Shield rock to look at and climb around on.
