City & Place Guide

Small northern Ontario town with wilderness charm and friendly hospitality.

Earlton is a small community in the Timiskaming District of northeastern Ontario, situated along Highway 11 roughly between New Liskeard and Englehart. With a population of just a few hundred residents, it offers a quiet, authentic glimpse into rural northern Ontario life amid boreal forests and agricultural land.

The town is perhaps best known for Earlton Zoo, a beloved regional attraction that has drawn families for decades. Surrounding wilderness provides ample opportunities for hunting, fishing, snowmobiling, and ATV riding, making it a modest destination for outdoor enthusiasts seeking an off-the-beaten-path experience.

  • •Earlton Zoo — a family-friendly zoo with exotic and domestic animals, a regional landmark for decades.
  • •Timiskaming area lakes — nearby lakes offer excellent fishing for walleye, pike, and perch.
  • •Highway 11 corridor snowmobile trails — world-class groomed trails connecting through town in winter.
  • •Agricultural scenery — rolling farmland and boreal forest create scenic drives throughout the region.
  • •New Liskeard (nearby) — the larger neighbouring town offering markets, waterfront, and additional dining.
  • •Englehart Historical Museum (nearby) — a short drive south for local heritage and railway history.

Getting around: Earlton has no public transit system; a personal vehicle or rental car is essentially required to get around. Highway 11 passes directly through the area, making driving the primary mode of transport. Taxis are extremely limited, and rideshare services like Uber are not reliably available this far north, so visitors should plan accordingly.

Best time: Summer (June through August) is the best time to visit for outdoor activities and zoo visits, while winter draws snowmobilers to the extensive trail network.

Local food: Visitors should try hearty northern comfort food at local diners, including poutine, fresh locally caught fish fry, and homestyle Canadian fare.
