Humber River

Highlight • River

The Humber River spans 126 kilometres and flows from the Niagara Escarpment and Oak Ridges Moraine to Lake Ontario. Its watershed spans over 900 square kilometres and includes forests, meadows, wetlands, and urban areas, making it one of Ontario’s most ecologically and historically significant rivers. Designated a Canadian Heritage River in 1999, the Humber served as a vital travel corridor for Indigenous peoples and early European settlers, including along the Toronto Carrying-Place Trail.

Humber Grove Ghost Town

Highlight • Historical Site

Humber Grove is tucked along the Humber River where only traces of its past still linger. Walking the area today, you’ll find little more than old foundations, scattered stones, and subtle changes in the landscape. Look closely and you'll find clues to a small riverside community that once stood here before being abandoned and reclaimed by the forest.
