A North Bay Institution since 1969! My favourite pizza place in town.
Casual dining, the wait staff are super friendly, takeout, delivery options as well. If you love toppings, the deluxe is my go to but also the gourmet and the Greek are super tasty.

This Conservation Area, owned by the North Bay-Mattawa Conservation Authority, includes the McNutt Family Trail and the Richardson Ridge Trail. These trails extend along the escarpment which is such a dominant feature in the City of North Bay. This area was originally logged in the 1880s, and was settled and farmed soon after. Much of the escarpment was cleared at this time, with very little old growth forest remaining. Some of the regenerated forest stands are in excess of 75 years old. The ski hill is independently run by the Laurentian Ski Hill Board and has snowshoe rentals available at the upper chalet

The Kate Pace Way is a paved pathway that connects North Bay’s waterfront with the neighbourhoods and green spaces at the south end of the city. The trail was also recently designated as part of the Voyageur Cycling Route with cycling connections to other provincially significant routes. The popular trail celebrates a tradition of excellence in sport in the city and honours Olympic skier Kate Pace as its namesake. Adding to its celebrity, the trail is designated as part of the Trans Canada Trail, bringing national attention to the city.

North Bay’s iconic Duchesnay Falls draws hundreds of hikers to the trails in every season. The access off Highway 17 offers the best vantage point to view the series of falls as they cascade down the escarpment. The trails can also be accessed from behind the Education Centre from where hikers are rewarded with spectacular views of Lake Nipissing amidst a wilderness setting. In the winter, volunteers groom a series of cross-country ski trails for students and the public alike.
This trail is a loop of approximately 3 km. Duchesnay Falls starts as a series of low, picturesque cascades on the river. But be cautious! There are some steep drop-offs, the rocks can be slippery when wet, and there are no fences at any of the falls. This trail will provide opportunity for gorgeous photography in autumn. This trail hooks up with the Education Centre Trails in many places. Signs indicate all the trail hook ups.
