MacGregor Point Provincial Park, Provincial park on Lake Huron shore, Ontario, Canada
MacGregor Point Provincial Park is a nature reserve along Lake Huron's shore in Ontario, featuring coastal wetlands, forest coverage, and sand dunes. The site offers 20 kilometers of marked trails for walking and biking, along with more than 360 campsites and roofed lodging options.
The park opened in 1975 after a nearby provincial park closed. Most of its facilities were built during the late 1970s.
A birding festival happens every year in late spring, drawing nature observers who want to watch migratory bird species at the shoreline. Visitors can spot different passing birds that stop here while traveling north.
The park is easiest to visit during warmer months when all trails are open and facilities run at full capacity. Bring proper footwear for mixed terrain, as paths pass through forest, cross sand dunes, and run along the shoreline.
The site is home to carnivorous plants and the rare dwarf lake iris found nowhere else in the region. During breeding season, visitors might spot black-crowned night herons resting in the wetland areas.
