If you're looking for an outdoor adventure with amazing views, Dorset Lookout Tower should be on your list. The tower itself stands tall at 30 meters, but it's 142m above lake of bays. What makes the climb truly exhilarating is the metal grate flooring. Being able to see through each step as you ascend adds an extra element of excitement, especially for those who aren't too fond of heights. We visited on a windy day, and the gusts made the experience a little more nerve-wracking – but it added to the thrill! Once you reach the top, the panoramic views are absolutely worth it. You get a sweeping sight of the surrounding forest and Lake of Bays, which I imagine will be even more stunning when the fall colors come in. Whether you're a nature lover or just in need of some fresh air and a good view, the lookout delivers. Practical details: there's ample parking, and the site has two clean public bathrooms, which is always appreciated. There's also a water filling station with natural spring water – a nice bonus – and a small gift shop for souvenirs. It’s definitely worth the drive for a day trip, and we plan to return in the fall to see the changing leaves.
