For the touring motorcyclist looking to get out of the kitchen, Highway 17 North of Sault Ste. Marie to Wawa is a great sample of all things Algoma. One of the Top Ten Drives in Canada, this stretch of roadway offers a WOW!factor featuring sharp turns, dips along the stretch and waterfront vistas with views of 30 miles or more across the lake. At times you may feel as if you’re going to drive right off the edge of the highway into Old Woman Bay, Alona Bay or Katherine Cove. You may not want to do any over-the-shoulder viewing!
Experience changing forest types, dizzying heights of land and rock faces along with big water views from a highway that hugs the coastline of Lake Superior. This stretch of highway is like touring a panoramic postcard where one turn reveals a sheer-drop view of Lake Superior while the next features a wall of rugged Canadian Shield rock that rises up beside you beyond your range of vision.
This route can be toured in less than a day. There are many rest stops along the way that offer incredible views of the Lake Superior coastline, that include sandy beaches. Stop at a local restaurant to experience some of friendly Northern hospitality and a delicious home cooked meal. The changing of the day, from dusk until dawn, presents views of beautiful sunsets filling the sky with an assortment of colours. After dark those touring should take caution of the local wildlife. It is important to obey all deer and moose-crossing signs in the area.
