Orangeville is waiting to be discovered by visitors of all ages. Many fun and affordable activities offer opportunities for families to connect while enjoying year-round entertainment.

All-season adventure at Island Lake Conservation Area

Island Lake Conservation Area offers outdoor adventures for everyone in the family. The natural retreat features 330 hectares of lake, wetland, forest and meadow. A morning spent at Island Lake is a sure way to enjoy a dose of fresh air while engaging with nature and each other.

Accessible, well-maintained trails welcome hikers and cyclists of all ages and abilities. Take a moment to stop and admire the views from a trail-side bench or boardwalk bridge. Keep an eye out for local wildlife and birds who call this outdoor oasis home.

In the summer, spend some time on the water canoeing, kayaking or fishing. Snowshoeing and ice fishing are popular winter activities. 

Break for lunch

Worked up an appetite? Many of our restaurants and caféscater to families. From kids' menus to three-course delights, you'll find something to satisfy that rumbling tummy.

Get creative

You can foster your family's artistic talent with a visit to Maggiolly Art Supplies, Ricky Schaede Art Studio, or Art with Jada. Each space offers classes, supplies, and inspiration. Visit Pottery Parties Studio to create a custom masterpiece or get inspired by books as you search the stacks at Readers' Choice or BookLore.

Go on a search

On the hunt for treasure? More than 70 pieces of public art are scattered throughout Orangeville, ready to be discovered. The collection includes over 40 tree sculptures that depict the Town's people, stories and history while preserving local trees. Follow a self-guided tour to find your favourite piece or discover a literary adventure at Island Lake. With both options, you'll have a chance to explore our community while spending time together. 

Burn some energy

Fit in one or two more activities before the end of your day by taking advantage of Orangeville's drop-in programs at our Town arenas and pool. Kids can also run, jump, slide and climb at Recess Play indoor playground. For a sensory-friendly option, schedule a visit at Inclusive Perspectives.

For those who prefer to roll, the skateboard and BMX parks offer an outlet for all the tricks, twists and turns you can muster. Use our digital guide to discover some of Orangeville's family-friendly parks.

With so many activities, there is no shortage of ways to keep everyone in the family entertained and energized during your stay in Orangeville.
