About
Gravenhurst has been welcoming visitors to the community since the mid-1800s. Whether it was known as McCabe’s Landing, Sawdust City, or Gravenhurst, it has always been a warm and welcoming place where memories are created.
When you visit Gravenhurst, you can enjoy a cruise with Muskoka Steamships, explore the exhibits at the Muskoka Discovery Centre, stroll along the boardwalk at the Muskoka Wharf, hike the Peninsula Trail, swim at one of the many beaches, visit Bethune Memorial House (the birthplace of a hero), take in live music at the Gravenhurst Opera House, and enjoy the Sundays at Music on the Barge. You can also go shopping at The Shipyards, have High Tea at The Blue Willow Tea Shop at the Wharf, or walk along Muskoka Road for more places to shop and eat.
Some events you will enjoy are the Gravenhurst Car Show, Tall Pines Music & Arts Festival and Muskoka Rib Fest, as well as the Civic Holiday Weekend fireworks over Muskoka Bay.
