Bobcaygeon Lock 32 & Swing Bridge in Action – Trent-Severn Waterway Revisit

Описание: Join us on a peaceful return to Bobcaygeon’s Lock 32 on the Trent-Severn Waterway. Watch boats pass through the historic lock, see the iconic swing bridge in motion, and soak in the charm of this cottage country favourite.

Welcome to Hai Hai Channel.
Today, we return to one of Ontario’s most charming lock stations—Lock 32 at Bobcaygeon, part of the historic Trent-Severn Waterway.

Nestled in the heart of the Kawarthas, Lock 32 was the very first lock constructed on the entire waterway—built in 1833—and it remains one of the busiest and most beloved spots to this day.

In this updated visit, we bring you a fresh look at the action—boats gliding into the lock chamber, the massive wooden lock gates opening, and the iconic Bobcaygeon Swing Bridge slowly pivoting to allow vessels to pass through.

This engineering marvel isn’t just functional—it’s part of the soul of the town. As the bridge swings open, traffic pauses and visitors gather along the railings to watch, wave, and snap photos. It’s a timeless rhythm that defines summer in cottage country.

Whether you’re a history lover, a boating enthusiast, or simply looking to experience a piece of peaceful small-town Ontario, there’s something truly special about this place.

So please join us as we soak in the sights and sounds of Lock 32 and the Bobcaygeon Swing Bridge—a wonderful blend of heritage, nature, and community.

And if you’ve seen our earlier video from this location, we hope you enjoy this updated revisit with more vibrant angles and scenes. Don’t forget to like, comment, and subscribe for more travel stories across Ontario and beyond.
