This 26 passenger cruise leaves from the Visitor Centre Dock and gives park visitors a relaxing tour of Upper and Lower Mazinaw Lakes. The tour is interpretive, as passengers are accompanied by a certified marine captain and a naturalist who explains points of interest along the way. This 20 passenger pontoon boat operates from mid-May until Thanksgiving Weekend and is crewed by a volunteer captain and a student interpreter. Passengers are taken across the Mazinaw to Bon Echo Rock where they can hike the 1.5 km trail to the top.
Trail guides are available from the on-board interpreter.
The Mugwump runs on demand each day throughout the summer months and on weekends in the spring and fall. The Friends of Bon Echo also operate a retail store and art gallery in the historic Greystones Building. The gift store's products are promotional and educational in nature, offering a wide selection of wildlife books, field guides, childrens' activity books, T-shirts and sweats. The store offers great gadgets and toys for kids. The annual Bon Echo Art Exhibition is held every July.
