Lion’s Head Provincial Park

Amazing place to do some hiking while having stunning view as an additional reward. To reach the lookout points take about 1~1.30 hours. You just need to follow the white-signaled trees and avoid going out of the trail. There are two trails, Inland and Bruce which may take up to 5 hours (around 15km) and end up in cemetery Rd if you start from the parking area. However, you can return to the Inland in some spots and go back to Bruce.Make sure to have water, good shoes and repellant if you go on summer.

Giving 5 stars for the amazing trek. It is 6.8km walk one way so be a little prepared, carry some water with you. Please don't go with high hopes for the main lookout spot, enjoy the views along the way and the look outs before the main one were really worth the hike personally.We forgot to carry water, thank god it was during spring, folks if you are going in summer, don't forget to carry water.Good hikes!!!! Enjoy!!!

The place is really good but please keep your hiking boots and a lots of water with you of plan to cover till the top point.

What a place! We have hiked to the main look out several times AND the whole loop on different occasions. Highly recommend it. It’s worth the hike! The full loop should only be done by experienced hikers, with lots of water and snacks. It’s so beautiful and there are various spots to look out. Find the lion’s head! Look out for poison ivy along the trails. Parking is brutal on weekends, get there early!!

Stunning view... great place to hike... pet friendly (pets must be on leash). Parking must be reserved prior to the visit as it's limited. From the parking area to the lookout point, it's about 45 min hikes. Proper hiking boots recommend as it's a rocky area.Be safe and be responsible for your own safety. Lookouts are dangerous.**tips : if you reach early, you can enjoy the scenery peacefully... **

Parking needs to be reserved. Roadside parking is available if ready for a short walk of 10 minutes or so. Hiking was fun and the views are incredible but would recommend going with some energy bars and water. A drone would do wonders (Don’t know if its legal or anything) cause the Lions head lookout actually looks quite like a lions head from up top.

Amazing hike with great views on Bruce peninsula part of the Bruce trail. The trail is rocky, so wear good shoes but the difficulty is easy to moderate as there’s no major elevation changes.We booked parking in advance but found out it was free when we got there! And as always, leave no trace please!

My first and the best hiking experience I had. It’s a beautiful place, and be prepared to fill up your bags with water and snacks. The hiking is moderate level. The lion’s lookout point is the top destination you need to reach. No words to describe the turquoise water you see below. Those who love hiking, would definitely love this place.

Amazing and scenic spot to hike. Not too much up and down, and exquisite views off of the escarpment. Has gotten busier throughout the pandemic, but still does not see the same amount of foot traffic as Bruce Peninsula National Park, especially on weekdays. Cannot wait to go back!
