Muskoka District Municipality
Muskoka District Municipality, Regional municipality in Central Ontario, Canada
The District Municipality of Muskoka extends over 6,475 square kilometers of territory, containing 1,600 lakes between Georgian Bay and Lake Couchiching.
The territorial district formation occurred in 1868, incorporating unorganized territories and sections of Simcoe County under the Free Grants and Homestead Act.
The Ojibwa people utilized Muskoka's resources for fishing and hunting before European settlers arrived, establishing a deep connection with the land.
The region maintains direct access through Muskoka Airport, functioning since 1930, and connects to Toronto through a two-hour drive north.
The municipality transformed from a logging territory to a sought-after destination with 2.1 million annual visitors exploring its numerous lakes and natural spaces.
