From the rugged landscape of the 1000 Islands in the west to the tranquil wandering shoreline and islands of the St. Lawrence River in the east, the Parks of the St. Lawrence offer visitors to Eastern Ontario the perfect setting for great outdoor vacations. We have over 1200 campsites at seven different campgrounds and five riverside day-use parks to choose from.
Located along the 401 travel corridor between the Quebec border and Kingston, Ontario, our parks are in spacious but sheltered locations that ensure the quiet, outdoor environment ideal for relaxation and getaway fun. Whether you are an RV enthusiast or tenter, we offer a campground ideal for your camping pleasure.
Visit the Long Sault Parkway, a grouping of thirteen islands in the St. Lawrence like a necklace in the water, created from high points of land as a result of the flooding of the St. Lawrence River during the construction of the Seaway in the 1950's. In fact several villages once stood where the river is now. Eleven of these islands are connected by a 10-km causeway offering a camping destination and a number of inlets and quiet waters to paddle and explore. In places, you can still see remnants of old highway #2 as it disappears beneath the river. You will also find a scuba diving site and abundant fishing along the Parkway. Paddle boats, canoe rentals and sandy beaches are available to keep everyone busy.
The Parkway also acts as a connecting point along the St. Lawrence Recreational Bikeway. This recreational path stretches over 75 kms, the majority of which follows the shoreline of the St. Lawrence River. The path begins in Lancaster travelling along the shoreline to Gray's Creek, and then tavels through Cornwall to continue winding through the rolling terrain toward Long Sault. The path follows the island causeway of the Long Sault Parkway and continues to the Upper Canada Migratory Bird Sanctuary in Ingleside, then arriving at Upper Canada Village Heritage Park. From the Village, the path continues into the village of Morrisburg, with a section also completed in Iroquois.
Stay in the scenic 1000 Islands at Ivy Lea Park, part of the UNESCO designated Thousand Islands-Frontenac Arch Biosphere Reserve. Ivy Lea Park is part of the Biosphere Reserve that is just the twelfth such designation in Canada. Wildlife, both plants and animals, from five North American Forest regions are represented here, some at range limits and quite rare. The St. Lawrence River valley crosses the massive and ancient ridge of granite called the Frontenac Arch – a link between the Canadian Shield and the Adirondack Mountains. Both of these features cut across the sedimentary lowlands of the Great Lakes Basin to the west and the St. Lawrence Valley to the east. The result is a mosaic of wildlife and habitat, compressed into a very small landscape area.

Ivy Lea Campsite
The last glaciers passing through this region 10,000 years ago scoured a channel through the Cambrian Shield, creating the rugged beauty of the St. Lawrence River and the 1000 Islands. This is the setting for Ivy Lea Campsite, one of the Parks of the St. Lawrence\'s most scenic areas.

Glengarry Park Campsite
Glengarry Park is named for Glengarry County, an area originally settled by the Scottish who sought refuge here. They came from the colony of New York during the American Revolution and, in 1786 and 1788, direct from the Highlands where they had lost their old homes to the intruding sheep during the Highland Clearances.

Long Sault Parkway
The Long Sault Parkway was unique in its creation. It is a series of 11 islands that were created from high points of land left after the flooding of the St. Lawrence River during the construction of the Seaway in the 1950\'s. In fact several villages once stood where the river now lies, a fascinating story captured at the Lost Villages display along the Parkway.

Browns Bay Area
This is the oldest of all of the Parks of the St. Lawrence. Before the St. Lawrence Seaway came into existence, Brown's Bay was the only provincial park between Gananoque and the Quebec border. It continues to be a popular stopping point for travellers to enjoy some outdoor recreation en route between Toronto and Montreal.
