Thousand Islands National Park
March, 2021
Journey to the beautiful granite islands and windswept pine trees of Thousand Islands National Park, established in 1904 as the first Canadian national park east of the Rockies.
Glaciers retreated 10,000 years ago; scraping off sediments and exposing the rounded knobs of an ancient mountain chain. When the St. Lawrence River flooded the area on its path to the Atlantic Ocean, 1,000 hilltops became the Thousand Islands.
