Sault Ste. Marie….Naturally Gifted
S
ault Ste. Marie is the natural choice; centrally located
in Ontario, poised in the middle of the magnificent Great
Lakes and strategically placed in the centre of North
America. The International Bridge, which links our beautiful
waterfront city to our sister city, Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan,
creates an International flavour while providing an easy
access from south-western Ontario and the mid-west
states.
Sault Ste. Marie has a reputation as a great place to meet.
Located on the shore of the St. Marys River, connecting
Lake Huron and Lake Superior, the city is at the “heart”
of the Great Lakes and the intersection of I-75 from the
south and the Trans Canada Highway from the east and
west. The rich, lush forests of the area provide a colourful
backdrop in any season; the cool greens of summer offer
hikers, bikers, and campers a great setting for fresh air
enjoyment. The Sault is the heart of Northern Ontario and
your base for a world class outdoor experience. Explore
soft adventure pleasures such as a hike through a wooded
trail at a nearby park to raging over the waters of Lake
Superior in a kayak – it’s at your fingertips in Sault Ste.
Marie.
Major attractions include: the Agawa Canyon Tour Train,
the Canadian Bushplane Heritage Centre, Art Gallery of
Algoma, Ermatinger Clergue National Historic Site and
Heritage Discover y Centre, Sault Ste. Marie Museum,
Sault Ste. Marie Canal National Historic Site of Canada,
