The Outdoors

Ridgeback Lodge has something for all seasons.  

Hiking/Snowshoeing

We have hiking trails on our own property which in winter are good for snowshoeing.  The trails offer a great place for birdwatchers at any time of the year.

Canoeing

Take a peaceful journey on our sit-on kayaks, which are free to use by guests at the pond.  We rent canoes on the Kingston Creek.

Swimming

The pond on the property is spring fed and ideal for a refreshing swim in the summer. 

Local attractions around the Kingston Peninsula.
