🌲 DORION PINNACLE / DORION TOWER 🪨
Some places are worth the little bit of effort it takes to get there…
Dorion Pinnacle — also known as Dorion Tower — is one of those places.
Tucked away along Tower Road, this trail leads to an incredible panoramic lookout over Black Bay and Lake Superior, surrounded by the rugged boreal landscape and the unique rock formations that make this area so special.
🚙 A little trailhead tip: A high-clearance vehicle will make the drive along Tower Road much easier, and honestly, we wouldn't recommend attempting it in anything with low clearance.
Once you reach the trailhead, keep an eye out for the flagged entrance across from the road. On our visit, Inuksuk marked the way along the trail, making it a little easier to follow. The hike itself takes roughly 30 minutes to reach the Pinnacle.
And then… you get the view. 👀
The adventurous can wander farther east through the forest to discover another vantage point, where — if you know where to look — Eagle Canyon's suspension bridge can be spotted in the distance.
It's rugged. It's wild. It's uniquely Northern Ontario.
And it's exactly the kind of place that reminds us why we love calling this corner of the world home. ❤️🌲
Add this one to your Northern Ontario adventure list.
