Explore the Hub of the North
Located between Thunder Bay, Ontario and Winnipeg, Manitoba, the Municipality of Sioux Lookout is surrounded by the rugged Canadian Shield, endless forest and an extensive lake and river system.
The long list of outdoor activities you can do here makes Sioux Lookout a natural playground to explore. Travel our network of more than seven lakes with a guided or unguided boat ride. In the summer, swim our crystal clear waters at one of our four public beaches. Walk the Umfreville Trail or camp out at the Ojibway Provincial Park. In the winter, snowmobile 365 kilometres of freshly groomed snow along the best trails in Ontario.
Our identity as Hub of the North, rings true in our location and in the spirit of our community. We connect over 30,000 people in 30 northern First Nations communities to our state-of-the-art hospital and related health care, social and education services.
Visiting Sioux Lookout means experiencing Ontario's north as it is meant to be. Here, nature is still predominant and each person in our community of 5,700 is important.
Explore all that Sioux Lookout has to offer! Whether you're here for a few days, or a lifetime, the Hub of the North is a truly special place to be.
