Your mini guide to Petroglyphs Provincial Park

Looking for something peaceful, powerful, a little different for your next Ontario park day? 🌿✨

Petroglyphs Provincial Park is home to sacred rock carvings, crystal-clear lakes, and quiet forest trails that make it one of the most unique parks in the province.

Located just north of Peterborough, it’s perfect for a meaningful day trip where nature and history go hand in hand.

✨ Why visit Petroglyphs this summer:

• See 1,200+ Indigenous rock carvings at the Teaching Rocks 🪨

• Learn about Anishinaabe culture and spiritual teachings

• Hike forest trails like Nanabush Trail

• Visit McGinnis Lake: one of Canada’s few meromictic lakes (that turquoise glow is real)

This isn’t your typical hike. t’s a place to learn, pause, and experience something deeper.
