Within the District of Parry Sound are the regions of Restoule and Port Loring. Port Loring is made up of a string of small and enchanting communities with great cottages; 
Bear Valley, Golden Valley, Arnstein, 
and Loring. Together they share with the visitor a warm sense of community and an image of true country charm. Restoule straddles the narrows between two lakes south of Lake Nipissing. Hike or mountain-bike to high granite bluffs and a fire tower where you can see for miles. Watch for heron rookeries, birds of prey and populous white-tailed deer. Embark from here on a five-day canoe trip tracing Samuel de Champlain's original route.
