Potholes Provincial Nature Reserve is a hidden geological gem located about 35 minutes east of Wawa, where the boreal forest meets the Kinniwabi River. The park's main draw is its collection of distinctive potholes, cylindrical pits carved into the bedrock by glacial meltwaters over 10,000 years ago, that now form a series of miniature waterfalls and rock pools. The park is small, but there is a picnic area with toilets at the trailhead.
