Burma Trail

The Burma Trail is a rugged path within Sleeping Giant Provincial Park, stretching over Ontario’s natural splendor. The trail is a haven for cross-country skiing in winter and transforms into a mountain biking trail in warmer seasons. It winds through an ancient pine forest, rolling hills, and often muddy landscapes, demanding sturdy hiking boots for those on foot. The trail is open year-round, offering a secluded experience for bird watching, fishing, and hiking enthusiasts. As it connects Marie Louise Lake Drive and Thunder Bay Lookout Road, hikers are rewarded with views of mature Red and White Pines, serene interior lakes, and rocky outcrops. The Burma Trail promises an adventure for those seeking solitude and a touch of wilderness challenge.

Sleeping Giant Provincial Park features over 100 kms (62 mi) of well-maintained trails, ranging from easy, family-friendly walks to challenging routes for experienced adventurers. Hikers can explore a variety of landscapes, including dense forests, rugged cliffs, serene lakeshores, and the iconic Sleeping Giant formation itself. Wildlife is abundant, with opportunities to spot deer, foxes, birds, and even the occasional moose. Many trails lead to panoramic viewpoints, providing breathtaking vistas of Lake Superior and the surrounding wilderness.
