Getting Here
Goderich is located on the shores of Lake Huron, on Hwy #8 and Hwy #21. It is approximately a 1 hour drive north from London and 2.5 hours drive west from Toronto. Finding your way to Goderich is time well spent. The surrounding area is inexpensive to travel within and there are many unique communities who will welcome travellers with open arms.
Highways 8 and 21 lead north to Goderich from the main freeways in Ontario.
Once in Goderich, follow signs to The Square (Hwy 8 north ends in 5 point intersection; bear slightly right to Kingston St at the lights which will lead you to the Square. Hwy 21 north jogs; turn left onto East Street at the lights).
Continue around the roundabout until you reach the West Street exit.
Continue down West Street to the top of the beach hill; Lions Harbour Park overlooks the lake at the end of the street. Watch also for signs for The Park House, a nearby restaurant on the park site.
