The Trent-Severn Waterway closed for the season on October 13, 2014.
Parks Canada encourages the public to use caution in and around canal structures and channels. From mid-October to the end of May, the canal’s lock stations are closed and their use is at one’s own risk.
Unmarked hazards may exist. Wet leaves, ice, and snow may remain on stairs and walkways and ice conditions on the waterway can vary. Over the non-navigation season, aids to navigation may be missing, off-station or inoperable until next spring.
Water levels will begin to lower across the Trent-Severn Waterway and Haliburton reservoirs after October 14 in preparation for freeze up.
Parks Canada would like to thank everyone who visited by boat, bike, car or foot and look forward to welcoming you, your families and your friends again in 2015. We would like to remind you that lockage and mooring permits for 2015 will soon be available for purchase online at www.parkscanada.gc.ca/sr.
