7 days in Amherstburg Itinerary

Amherstburg is a town near the mouth of the Detroit River in Essex County, Ontario, Canada. Escape the urban bustle at Point Pelee National Park and Oxley Beach Golf Course. Venture out of the city with trips to Pelee Island (Lighthouse Point Provincial Nature Reserve & Pelee Island Winery), Hillman Marsh Conservation Area (in Leamington) and Big Creek Conservation Area (in McGregor). There's still lots to do: make a trip to Amherstburg Navy Yard National Historic Site, examine the collection at Amherstburg Freedom Museum, do a tasting at North 42 Degrees Estate Winery & Bistro 42, and steep yourself in history at Fort Malden National Historic Site.
