Bon Echo Provincial Park is on the southern edge of the Canadian Shield in Eastern Ontario. Its beautiful forests, lakes, and beaches combine with a rich cultural history, and one particularly outstanding geological feature -- Mazinaw Rock -- to make this park one of the most popular outdoor recreation areas in the province.

The spectacular 1.5 kilometre long sheer cliff rising 100 metres above the deep dark waters of Mazinaw Lake, attracts more than 150,000 visitors to the park every year. The Rock is a special place for many reasons, but perhaps the most intriguing testimony to this, are the scores of ancient Native pictographs painted just above the waterline. These beautiful haunting images represent one of the largest such concentrations in North America.
