Planning the Drive

It's almost entirely highway driving — take ON-401 West out of Toronto, stay on it the whole way, then follow local roads into Aylmer toward Imperial Road. Free parking once you arrive, and a full day of 65+ attractions waiting for you.

Heads up: the 401 out of the GTA can be slow during morning rush hour. Leaving before 9am, or a bit later once the morning rush clears, usually makes for a smoother drive down.
