Kivi Park is an all-season destination in Sudbury that’s a favourite among locals and visitors alike. You can go hiking, biking, skiing, and snowshoeing, depending on the season. During the spring, summer, and fall, there are several hiking trails at Kivi Park of varying lengths.
Manitoulin Island
Cup and Saucer – Michigiwadinong Trails - Located Twenty km west of Little Current, with ample parking and trailhead off Highway 540, 3km past the Bidwell Road corner, is the well known Cup and Saucer trail. With its dramatic 70 metre cliffs and breathtaking views, up to 12km of hiking trails, and a 2km adventure trail, it is one of the most popular trails in Ontario. Anywhere from 1.5 to 4 hours. Spectacular views over both the North Channel and Lake Manitou.
Bridal Veil Falls - The Bridal Veil Falls trail system is located in Kagawong. Although there is access to the trail system at Bridal Veil Falls, which is adjacent to Hwy 540, there are much safer and roomier parking options in the lower hamlet of Kagawong, including at the Park Centre and in the vicinity of the river mouth as well as next to Dig and Doug’s Cedar Furniture. Park in lower Kagawong and enjoy the river trail system/falls on foot – you get the best of both worlds! The lower village includes other points of interest, and both the upper and lower village have unique shops. Note that the Bridal Veil Falls trail system is also part of the new Billings Connections Trail and includes access to several of the new public sculptures and heritage plaques installed as part of the Billings Canada 150 project.
