About Sleeping Giant

Sleeping Giant Provincial Park is one of Ontario's most iconic protected areas, located on the Sibley Peninsula extending into Lake Superior. The park is named after the dramatic 240-meter-high cliffs that resemble a sleeping giant when viewed from Thunder Bay across the peninsula. This wilderness park encompasses diverse landscapes including boreal forests, rocky shorelines, inland lakes, and the famous Sea Lion formation at the peninsula's tip.
