The Fire Tower Lookout is located along the Deer Trail Driving Tour by turning off Highway 108 down Milliken Road. Follow the signs to reach the lookout.

Views

The structure is a replica of a fire ranger's lookout station and provides a 360-degree, panoramic view of the area's former mine sites that are now returned to their natural state. You can also see Manitoulin Island on the North Channel of Lake Huron.
