Sioux Narrows Ontario Tourism Office, Government dock and boat launch area


The Sioux Narrows 210ft wooden bridge is the longest in North America.

The Sioux Narrows Bridge is a remarkable feat of workmanship and engineering. It is reportedly the longest single span wooden bridge in the world. The natural beauty, derived from its wooden truss construction, allows it to blend into the surrounding area as an extension of nature itself.

Sightseers will discover red-ochre ancient pictographs painted on rocks along the lakeshore depict spririts, animals and less identifiable shapes suggesting a long aboriginal presence in the area. More recently, in the mid-18th century, the Ojibwa defeated a war-party of Sioux swimming across the narrows. Today, the highway crosses the narrows at the site of the battle, and the park and nearby town are named in recognition of this episode of the area's history.
