Laurentian Legacy Tours

This guided walking tour for 12 people or less will show you breathtaking scenery, fascinating locations, geological marvels, and will help you understand the history of St. Lawrence.  Its people have endured countless challenges; earthquakes, a tsunami, the Great Depression, both World Wars, the rise and fall of the fishery, and working conditions in the mines that led to many miners losing their lives. 

A knowledgeable guide will tell tales of tragedy, recount events that will both move and inspire you, show you the unique geological features of the area, point out historical sites, and even highlight local plants and wildlife while you walk the trails where many of the people of St. Lawrence showed determination and resilience of spirit so many years ago.
