Discover Haliburton

The village of Haliburton sits on Head Lake, with a sandy town beach, a lakeside park and a main street of outfitters, cafés and galleries. Just outside town, the Haliburton Sculpture Forest hides dozens of artworks along forest trails, and Lake Kashagawigamog — “Kash” to locals — stretches west with cottages along its shores.

North of the village, Haliburton Forest and Wild Life Reserve offers a canopy walk, wolf centre and hundreds of kilometres of trails. A cottage for rent near Haliburton is a good base for paddling, fishing, hiking in summer and fall, and snowmobiling or skiing at Sir Sam’s in winter. Haliburton is about 2¾ hours from Toronto.
