1: Rock Wood Park
A beautiful conservation area on the Eramosa River, just north of Guelph, easily accessible from GTA (~1 hour drive via Hwy 401/7)
Rockwood has one of the highest concentrations of glacial potholes in the world — over 200 natural potholes carved into limestone bedrock by ancient whirlpools during the last Ice Age. Some are as deep as 30 meters and wide enough to stand in. You won’t find this many in such a small area anywhere else in Canada.
It’s like walking through a sculpted landscape from another time — a natural museum of Earth’s glacial past.
