Hawk Junction, Ontario

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hawk Junction is a small community in the Algoma District, Ontario, Canada, part of Algoma Unorganized North Part territory. It is located just north of Highway 101, about 30 kilometers (19 mi) east of Wawa.

Hawk Junction was established by people of Italian, Scottish and French descent in 1909 when the Algoma Central Railway was built through the area. In 1923-1924 it was completely destroyed by fire. The community was rebuilt and is now a terminal for the Algoma Central Railway. ^[1]

Hawk Junction has hardly any services and relies on nearby Wawa for its services. It is however a good starting point for wilderness hunting and fishing trips. During the winter Hawk Junction is a major snowmobile drop off point. ^[1]
