For Outdoor Adventurers

Now is the time to experience the natural scenery and distinct landscapes that can be found in Orangeville and the surrounding region. Whether you're a leisurely wanderer, nature enthusiast, or active explorer, you'll find yourself just steps away from enjoying a variety of outdoor opportunities.

Fuel up for a day out

Start your outing with a nourishing breakfast at one of our many cafés or restaurants. A coffee and "Eggy Thing" from Mochaberry, a hearty smoothie from Euphoria, or a belly-filling order from Sunset Grill are just a few options to power up for your adventure.

Equipped and ready for anything

Make sure you're fully prepared and stocked for your journey, whether quaint or epic. Activewear and equipment are ready and available at Moguls in Mocean and Sport Chek. If wheels are your mode of transport, locally-owned Cycling Elements can get you rolling with its signature services and accessories.

Find a map with all local trails and bike routes that can guide you through Orangeville's combined 20 kilometres of multi-use trails, ready to be explored.

Four seasons of adventure

Fill your lungs with fresh air at Island Lake Conservation Area, a recreational retreat that features 330 hectares of lake, wetland, forest and meadow. Follow the twisting and turning trails through the park on foot or on two wheels. Take a moment to stop and gaze upon the magnificent sights and views from a trail-side bench or boardwalk bridge. You can also spot many of our region's native birds in this outdoor oasis.

Take to the water in a boat, canoe or kayak or bait your hook at this popular fishing spot. When the weather gets cold, you can stay warm by snowshoeing or skating, or sit and relax by an ice fishing hole and wait for the next big catch. Fishing derbies, races, and curling pondspiels offer competitive thrills for outdoor enthusiasts and athletes.

Inside Orangeville

There are also plenty of indoor activities and programs that can keep the blood pumping. Test your aim with archery, axe throwing or even archery dodgeball at Far Shot Recreation. Throw some shots at Bowling on Broadway, Orangeville's boutique bowling alley and entertainment lounge. There are also drop-in programs and activities offered at our recreation facilities that provide many ways to stay active.

However you choose to burn off your energy, it's easy to keep your activity levels high during your visit to Orangeville.
