Interactive map, like the one currently on the home page
Google maps is accurate to get directions but some GPS’s will direct to the wrong location. It is important to note that Scales Nature Park is NOT in Orillia, but just outside in Oro-Medonte! Please keep an eye out for our driveway sign, as it is set back from the road and can be easily missed.
