We’re taking our boat through one of the most incredible engineering marvels on Canada’s Trent-Severn Waterway - the Peterborough Lift Lock, the world’s highest hydraulic lift lock!

Instead of a traditional lock, our entire boat is lifted 65 feet in a massive hydraulic chamber that has been operating for more than 120 years.

But Peterborough is only the beginning of this stretch of our Great Loop adventure. After reaching the top, we continue along the Trent-Severn Waterway through more locks, beautiful Ontario scenery, and toward our next destination. Come along to experience one of Canada’s most impressive engineering landmarks and see where the Trent-Severn waterway takes us next!
