Skip Highway 60 traffic: THIS is Ontario's best fall drive right now 🍁👇
📌 Save this 7-stop route for this weekend - colors won't last another week.
Everyone heads to Algonquin Park, but Highway 35 south through Minden to Dorset gives you ridges, lookouts, and waterfalls with way less traffic.
*YOUR 7 STOPS:*
1. Highway 35 Ridge - rolling views north of Minden
2. Dorset Lookout Tower - 142m above Lake of Bays, go before 10AM
3. Oxtongue Rapids - quick coffee stop among maples
4-7. Full details + parking tips in photos → swipe through
Send this to your road-trip crew and follow @inshortscanada for more Canada guides!
📍 Route: Highway 35 → Dorset → Lake of Bays (Ontario, Canada)
🚗 Distance from GTA: Approx. 2.5 hours north
🍂 Best Foliage Window: Late September to October.
