Bruce Peninsula National Park is a scenic area on Bruce Peninsula in southern Ontario in Canada. The park is famous for its massive limestone cliffs, extremely old cedars, and colorful orchids.
The park covers 38,100 acres (15,400 hectares). A rugged limestone wall called the Niagara Escarpment stretches along the peninsula’s eastern shoreline. Its steep slopes drop over 120 feet (40 meters) in some places. Cedars more than 1,000 years old jut out of cliff faces. In addition to orchids, ferns flourish in Bruce Peninsula National Park. Animals in the park include beavers, black bears, deer, foxes, raccoons, and rattlesnakes.
The park offers a variety of activities for visitors, including bird watching, camping, hiking, kayaking, and swimming. The Canadian government established Bruce Peninsula National Park in 1987.
