Celebrate maple syrup in Ontario

Celebrate maple syrup in Ontario
10 Feb 2010

Travellers planning a trip to Canada this year will be able to visit the province of Ontario as it celebrates one of the country's most famous exports - maple syrup.

A number of festivals are arranged during the spring months to reflect the production of maple syrup - which is a historic tradition in Ontario - and the many ways in which it is enjoyed.

One destination worth visiting is Bronte Creek, which is located between the towns of Burlington and Oakville, 50km from Toronto.

The maple syrup season begins in March, leading to a variety of guided tours, wagon rides, syrup-making demonstrations and other events taking place in Bronte Creek.

Travellers can also head to Bruce's Mill and Kortright just outside Toronto to attend the Sugar Bush Maple Syrup Festival, which provides plenty of opportunities to sample the sweet produce on pancakes, waffles, crumpets and other treats.

McLean Berry Farm in the Kawartha Lakes will host an event between 20 March and 4 April featuring live music performances, celebrity chef demonstrations, ice carving displays and more.
