Owen Sound.

Owen Sound sits at the south end of Owen Sound, the harbour inlet at the head of Georgian Bay where the Sydenham and Pottawatomi rivers meet the bay. Harrison Park runs 100 acres along the Sydenham River through downtown — Sydenham River valley, deer park, gardens, and the Mile Drive loop — and Kelso Beach Park anchors the western Georgian Bay shoreline at the city's edge.

The Tom Thomson Art Gallery, named for the painter who grew up near Leith just east of the city, sits downtown with a permanent collection of Tom Thomson and Group of Seven works; the Owen Sound Marine & Rail Museum occupies the former Canadian National Railway station on the inner harbour, and the Billy Bishop Home and Museum is the birthplace of WWI VC airman Billy Bishop. The Bruce Trail Sydenham section threads the surrounding Niagara Escarpment, with Hibou Conservation Area carrying a Georgian Bay shoreline walk northeast of the city.

Owen Sound sits on the traditional territory of the Saugeen Ojibway Nation. A few hours from the GTA via Highway 10.
