In the heart of the Niagara Escapement World Biosphere Reserve, the 'Bruce' and ‘Fathom Five’ are places of global significance. Thousands of visitors come each year to experience the massive, rugged cliffs of the parks, inhabited by thousand year old cedar trees, overhanging the crystal clear waters of Georgian Bay and the stunning display of plant and animal life.

Parks Canada's Mandate On behalf of the people of Canada, we protect and present nationally significant examples of Canada's natural and cultural heritage and foster public understanding, appreciation and enjoyment in ways that ensure their ecological and commemorative integrity for present and future generations.
"Dolomite, 420 million years old, rises through the sparkling waters of Lake Huron to form Fathom Five National Marine Park. This is a freshwater ecosystem of ancient rock formations, cliff-edge forests, fascinating dive sites on 22 shipwrecks, and orchid species both plentiful and rare. Visit for a day or backcountry camp on starry-skied Flowerpot Island—Fathom Five is equal parts mystery and recreation, ecology and culture—and a welcoming escape to nature."
