The cliff at Bon Echo rises 300 feet out of Lake Mazinaw. There's a large number of trad routes from 5.0 to 5.12. However, there's no sport climbing.
Because the cliff lies within a provincial park, there are rules that must be observed. Make yourself familiar with them at the section website:

The ACC hut is on the far side of the lake, and most climbers get there by the club boat. Pickup times must be arranged with the custodian, and are usually between 5 pm and 1030 pm on Wednesday or Friday, although other times may be arranged upon request.
HUT FEES:
Pre-paid via e-transfer. Fees include boat transport to the dock and cliff.
Members: $25 per day/night.
Non-members: $50 per day/night.
Age 13 to 18 half price, under 13 free.
WHAT TO EXPECT:
The hut is open. Climbers sleep in their own tents. Please pack out your garbage. The last boat trip to the dock is 4pm Sunday (unless the custodian advises otherwise). Please respect the custodian’s right to go home at a reasonable hour.
TRIP CLASSIFICATION: B/C
WAIVER: You will be required to sign an ACC waiver at the dock upon arrival.

Climbing: Mount Nemo
Climbing: Mount Nemo
September 28, 2025
Mount Nemo Conservation Area, 5317 Guelph Line, Burlington, ON L7P 0A5, Canada
WHERE: Mount Nemo Conservation Area ( Reservations recommended).
DESCRIPTION: Mount Nemo is the largest Escarpment crag in the Toronto area with more than 200 sport and trad routes. There is a top-roping ban at Nemo — clifftop anchors for top-ropes are not allowed, so climbers must lead the route from the ground up and then build an anchor for others to top-rope it. Therefore several lead climbers will be needed.
MAX. PARTICIPANTS: 10, at the trip leader’s discretion and pending volunteer availability. All participants should be comfortable with top-rope belaying. Familiarity with lead belaying and cleaning anchors is beneficial.
REQUIRED GEAR: Climbing helmet (mandatory), climbing harness, climbing shoes, belay device and pear-shaped locking carabiner and any other personal items (e.g. lunch & snacks for the day, water, appropriate clothing, sunglasses, sunscreen, bug spray, day pack, etc., ...).
OPTIONAL GEAR: Stick clip, personal tether (e.g. Sewn sling, PAS, Petzl Connect, etc., ...), at least 2 locking carabiners, quickdraws, trad rack and rope.
