Town of White River, Ontario

Where It All Began

Founded by the railroad, nourished by the forest, home to a beloved storybook character, and today it shines with charm and opportunity. Conveniently, White River is located squarely on Trans-Canada Highway 17, approximately 3.5 hours northwest of Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario and 4 hours east of Thunder Bay, Ontario. You’ll find this tight-knit community is nestled among granite, pines, and endless waterways. With over 125 years of rail history, White River is famously known as the birthplace of the bear that inspired Winnie-the-Pooh.

Visitors can visit the 15-foot Winnie-the-Pooh statue, perfect for a photo op! Additionally, join us for Winnie’s Hometown Festival hosted every year on the 3rd weekend in August to celebrate this global icon.

White River offers rugged beauty and a premier gateway to the great outdoors in the Boreal Forest. Enjoy wilderness activities by exploring hiking trails, paddling pristine waterways, or by ATV through the backcountry. The area is also home to world-class lodges and remote fishing and hunting adventures. Explore Ontario’s abundant wildlife and freshwater lakes in provincial parks.

White River’s unique culture, landscape, and history make it a remarkable Canadian hidden gem. Visit to enjoy endless outdoor adventures and discover the stories that have shaped our heritage for over a century. You’ll love making White River a part of your journey.
