About Sir Sam's
Sir Sam’s is located amidst some of the most scenic terrain in Ontario. Enjoy the rugged beauty of the Haliburton Highlands through the remnants of what was once apple orchards and wheat fields. Take in the breathtaking panoramic views over Eagle and Moose Lakes once at the top. The beginner-friendly trail meanders up the hill with elevation changes and contains small rocks and roots in some areas. The newest addition to the hiking trail is the Eagle View Observation Tower. View more information about the tower here.
Closed toe shoes are recommended. Dogs on leash are welcome. Enjoy a scenic picnic at any lookout location but please take all garbage with you and respect any wildlife you may encounter during your outing.
