Parry Sound District Nature Trails
Welcome to Parry Sound District!
Parry Sound District is a census division of the Canadian province of Ontario. Its boundaries are Muskoka to the south, the Sudbury District, the French River and Lake Nipissing in the north, Nipissing District and North Bay in the north and east and parts of Algonquin Park in the northeast.
Although geographically in Southern Ontario, the Ontario and federal governments treat it as it part of Northern Ontario. Like other census divisions in Northern Ontario, it does not have an incorporated county, regional municipality or district municipality level of government, instead serving as a purely territorial division like the other districts of Northern Ontario. In lieu of an upper tier of municipal administration, all government services in the district are provided either by the local municipalities or by the provincial government itself.
Along with the neighbouring Muskoka and Haliburton regions, the Parry Sound District is considered part of Ontario's cottage country region. The district is commonly divided into two subregions; West Parry Sound and East Parry Sound, the latter often referred to as the Almaguin Highlands.
