Dorset Tower in Dorset, Ontario
The Dorset Scenic Lookout Tower is located on Tower Hill, just outside of Dorset, Ontario. The tower was built for public use in 1967 and stands 100 feet tall. The top of the tower is 465 feet above Lake of Bays at the bottom of Tower Hill.
There is now a fee to enter the park at the tower. However, it is minimal at just $6 per vehicle.
A tower stood on the same location from 1922 as a forest fire lookout. That tower was 82 feet tall. Interestingly, the steel frame of the present tower was surplus, originally slated for the DEW line in the Arctic.
Dorset is at the centre of the Lake of Bays cottage country in the Muskoka region of Ontario. Just a short drive north is Algonquin Provincial Park.

Algonquin Provincial Park Fall Foliage | #fallColours #Canada | #Dorset Scenic Lookout Tower
Aspen's yellow fall colour, often referred to as the golden encore is at their best colour intensity, likely until the next high wind or heavy rain event. Aspen, part of the poplar family, shown in the live views of the Algonquin Park Webcam for example, are showing their brilliant yellow-gold colour.
The maple understory, visible at eye level, is offering photographic opportunities of red, orange, and yellow coloured leaves. Planning a walk on the Park's interpretive trails is a good way to see the current understory colours. Temperatures dipping to below freezing with frost has increased the intensity of the understory colours in Algonquin Park, but fragile leaves in the canopy (crowns) continue to fall with any wind and rain events. Maples are now showing the fuzzy gray colour of bare crowns in landscape views.
Tamarack, Algonquin’s only cone-bearing tree that drops all its needles, is showing various intensities of yellow/golden-yellow depending upon the exact location. Tamarack are increasing in their yellow colour, prior to dropping their needles in preparation for winter. Search for Tamaracks in wetlands and bogs including the Spruce Bog Boardwalk, the Mizzy Lake Trail, or along the Opeongo Road.
Fall colour is subject to numerous environmental variables such as daylight length, moisture, temperature, frost, wind, heavy rain, etc., so the exact peak of fall colour is difficult to determine in advance. High winds, rain, or even snow can sometimes quickly result in fragile leaves being knocked off the trees increasing what is called leaf fall.
Use the trip planning resources below (or links in the sidebar) to plan your fall trip to Algonquin Park. Also check back for regular updates.
