Sightseeing & Hiking
The Minden Whitewater Preserve is a 100 acre park with trails adjacent to a some of Canada's best whitewater rapids for park'n play kayaking and canoeing.
* Wifi
* Area dedicated to pull-in trailers (no electrical or septic service)
* large and small picnic shelters
* playgound for young children (COVID rules may apply)
* indoor and outdoor washroom facilities
* 3km trails
There are some great Hiking Trails for those that are interested to explore. Most are within a ~30 minute drive and make a great change from walking along our road. A couple have some rugged sections, involving clambering up or down rocks, but most are relatively flat.
Finally, I can recommended alltrails.com (and the companion app) for great hiking info and mapping.
Hope this is of interest!

Movie Theatre
This is a unique experience! This is not JUST a movie theatre- it is 5 unique theatres, where the seats, curtains, wall adornments were saved from old theatres that were torn down! Take a trip back in time- not just in the theatres themselves but in the winding hallways that connect them. Keith Stata has displayed a myriad of memorabilia flowing back through the decades. Be regaled by the movie posters of yesteryear and marvel at the most extensive collection of movie projectors that you’ll ever see! Plan time to visit this museum before your movie! This is one of the places YOU MUST SEE when visiting in North Kawartha Lakes or Halliburton. Located on highway 121, just north of Kinmount.
