Parks & Recreation

As an 8-80 Cities community, Parry Sound has an abundance of leisure activities to keep you active throughout the year. The many trails, parks, clean beaches and swimming lessons, sports courts and facilities, are made available for your enjoyment.

There are a number of Town facilities for rent, including the Bobby Orr Community Centre, Kinsmen Park and Charles W. Stockey Centre for the Performing Arts.
