Whitefish Falls, Ontario
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Whitefish Falls is a community in the Canadian province of Ontario. It is located in the geographic township of Mongowin, in the Sudbury District. Whitefish Falls lies on Highway 6, and is approximately 20 kilometres south of Espanola and 25 kilometres north of Little Current.
Whitefish Falls is situated around the mouth of the Whitefish River at Lake Huron, just downstream from a picturesque waterfall. It is a popular tourist destination in the summer months, and is also the site of the annual La Cloche Art Show.
A reunion of the popular Canadian CBC TV show Adventures in Rainbow Country was held here in August of 2006. Cast, locals and fans were present. The show was shot in the village in 1969.
Although not part of an incorporated municipality, a local service board jointly administers services in Whitefish Falls and the neighbouring community of Willisville. The two communities are also counted as a single designated place in Canadian censuses.
