The discovery of oil in Central Lambton forever changed the world. Come discover this heritage and the rich legacy of architecture, entertainment and unique shoping that continues today.

 

 

You'll "discover" even more about the early days of the petroleum industry at the Oil Museum of Canada in Oil Springs as well as at the Petrolia Discovery in Petrolia, where 19th century technology is still in use for pumping crude around the clock.

 

 

Golf courses throughout the region are a delight, including the historic Heritage heights Golf and Curling Club that dates back to the 1800s.

 

Looking for something different? How about a taste of honey...honey wine.  You'll be facinated and delighted with a visit to Alvinston's Munro Honey & Meadery, one of Ontario's only producers of mead.

Also in Alvinston is one of several parks, the A.W. Campbell Conservation Area; others include the Lorne C. Henderson Conservation Area in Petrolia, with camping, trails, inland lakes, and scenic lookouts. Plus there's Petrolia's Bridgeview park and the Shetland conservation Area, both of which feature scenic spots ideal for relaxation and family activities.

 

 

Theatre-goers will enjoy the delightfully historic Victoria Hall, which opened in 1889, where the Victoria Playhouse Petrolia offers a full season of professional performances.

 

Celebrating fall? Join us at any one-or all-of the numerous fall fairs that dot the area, including those in Brigden (established in 1850), Alvinston, Petrolia and Wyoming, all of which recognize the importance of the agricultural industry in a high-quality family entertainment setting.
