Many things to do at the Haliburton Forest! Jump aboard a dog sled tour at Haliburton Forest & Wildlife Reserve and ride through the trails across the 100,000 acres of forest.

Guided Ice Fishing tours give you the opportunity to fish for brook trout, rainbow trout and the Haliburton Gold lake trout. All required gear is provided by Haliburton Forest & Wildlife Reserve. Groups can book up to 6 people. Reservations are required.
