Established by French Canadian fur traders in 1820, this Sudbury municipality on the banks of Georgian Bay is the perfect starting point for an adventure vacation. Once you hike through its forests, kayak its lakes, and scale its mountains, you’ll see why Killarney is so special. Local vacation houses and cottages will help you feel at home here.

Taste the Area's Finest

There's few better complements to the views of Georgian Bay than some of the best fish and chips around. Herbert Fisheries is an Ontario institution serving its famous deep fried whitefish, thick-cut fries, and homemade coleslaw. Enjoy your food with some craft beer on the patio.

For another great local spot to fuel up, stop by Killarney Mountain Lodge.

Alternatively, enjoy a more rustic setting at Big Willys Bait Shop, where its menu of favourites like oysters, shrimp, and jambalaya are the stuff of Killarney legend. This is the perfect spot to unwind for the beautiful local sunsets.

Explore the Killarney Area

Explore the landscape beyond your local lodging with an adventure in Killarney Provincial Park. Covering over 485km2, it's one of Ontario’s most popular natural reserves. It's a beautiful scene of crystal clear lakes, colourful pine forests, and a natural habitat for moose, deer, and wolves.

The Killarney region is dotted with countless lakes. One of the area's highlights is the serene Topaz Lake.
