White River Valley

Boland River Hill South View

Entrance to Mississagi  Park

 Just a little past Laurentian Lodge, the route will start to climb up the Boland River Hill.  Don't miss the excellent photo opportunity to view the surrounding autumn colours from the top of this hill.  At the summit , your elevation will be approximately 1,500 feet above sea level.  Flack Lake can clearly be seen to the south in the distance.  When travelling  down the other side of this hill - you will enter the Little White River Valley.
As you travel north, the Deer Trail crosses through Mississagi Provincial Park You will find solitude and undeveloped wilderness at Mississagi Provincial Park, just 26 Kms north of Elliot Lake. Paddle to remote lakes or hike the numerous trails to spectacular vistas, especially in autumn. Watch for fossil evidence of ancient wave action in ripple rock along park trails.
View the metal sculpture of "The Miner" created by David Hind of White Mountain Academy of the Arts  (also a 2002 Deer Trail Studio Tour Artist) commissioned by Dennis & Carole Prodan - "dedicated to all the mining families who built this beautiful city".   Located on Milliken Mine Road across from the Elliot Lake Veterinary Clinic.  On the way to Country Depot Garden Center.
