Point Pelee National Park
Hop on our coach bus from Toronto and journey to one of Canada’s most remarkable natural escapes: Point Pelee National Park. Known as the southernmost tip of mainland Canada, this park is where Carolinian forests, sandy beaches, and sprawling marshlands all come together. In the fall, the landscape explodes with colour, making it one of the most photogenic day trips you can take.
This season is also when one of nature’s great spectacles happens: thousands of monarch butterflies gather at the park before continuing their migration to Mexico. Paired with brilliant fall foliage, it’s a once-in-a-lifetime sight you don’t want to miss.
Fall Colours at Point Pelee
Trails throughout the park glow with vibrant reds, oranges, and yellows. The Marsh Boardwalk and the woodland trails are especially beautiful this time of year.
Monarch Butterfly Migration
Every September, Point Pelee becomes a crucial resting spot for thousands of monarch butterflies on their way to Mexico. You may see entire trees filled with them — a breathtaking, unforgettable moment in nature.
