Travel To Wolfe Island's Most Beautiful Spots.

3/9/2013

 

Travel to Wolfe Island and you'll see that it is one of the prettiest spots in the Thousand Islands.

Travel to Wolfe Island: inside a coffee shop
Like I wouldn't track down coffee? When you travel to Wolfe Island, try a "Campefire Latte", a roasted marshmallow ice cream with hot chocolate poured on top!
Picturesque Wolfe Island sits at the entrance of the St Lawrence River and is easily accessible by a free ferry from neighbouring Kingston, Ontario. When you travel to Wolfe Island, you'll find that it's lovely any time of year, but in summer it is especially nice. Budget minded travelers will appreciate the scenic walks along the water, the safe, straight roads perfect for biking, the delightful bakery and nearby pubs and cafes. Best of all, there are plenty of unique photography opportunities!

I highly recommend a day trip to Wolfe Island for anyone visiting the Kingston and Thousand Island area. It's an affordable, relaxed, and charming area to retreat to for a day (or maybe a weekend!) and emerge feeling rested and recharged. 

As always, I welcome and encourage your comments. Have you ever been to Kingston or Wolfe Island?

Lovely photos! I went to Queen's for 3 years and never made it to Wolfe Island. I must make a point of visiting sometime!

Me too Lisa!! I went to Queen's and never made it over to Wolfe Island! I'm so glad I finally had a chance to visit - and rather sorry I never made it over there when I was a student!

What an amazing destination. It's amazing just how beautiful our Country is. I'm really hoping to make it over to the east coast (or just anywhere more east then Alberta) so I can explore more.
