ON Highway Itinerary: Wawa to Sault Ste Marie

What to See & Do Between Wawa and Sault Ste Marie?

This was one of the most challenging sections of the Trans-Canada to build (see the “history” articles) through the Algoma Wilderness. The northern portion of this route has stunning high bridges (the most challenging part of the Trans-Canada construction), and the southern portion winds its way up and down hills overlooking Lake Superior’s eastern shoreline. Take an iconic “selfie” with the Wawa Canada Goose, and beside the Trans-Canada’s midpoint plaque at Batchwana Bay.

Ontario Itinerary - Wawa - Sault Ste Marie

Here is the itinerary for the 224 km along #17 between Wawa and Sault Ste Marie:

Wawa Goose, statue near TCHNorth Shore of Superior

The original Trans-Canada Route was highway 11 (designated “The King’s Highway”), which connecting North Bay and Nipigon through northern forests. That highway was started in 1923 and completed as a key war-time project to provide toad access to key mining towns of northern Ontario. When Highway 17 was completed between Marathon and Montreal River in September 1960, it became the new (and much shorter) Trans Canada Highway.

The Rocks along Lake Superior were created about 2 billion years ago, and are part of the Precambrian Shield (“the Canadian Shield”). The rock was thoroughly scoured by the last Ice Age, leaving thousands of lakes and ponds.

Algoma Country and The Big Gap
Highway 171 Mile Hill, near Heyden

While the highway was gradually extended east from Thunder Bay, the stretch from Schreiber to Wawa was built over the 1930s, hindered by the harsh rugged terrain of Lake Superior’s north shore. Similar difficulties were encountered highway 17 was extended northwards from Sault Ste Marie to Montreal River on Agawa Bay. All that remained was a gap of 165 miles between the Agawa River, appropriately called “The Big Gap”. This area was so rugged it was by-passed by the Algoma Central Railway (which connected Sault Ste Marie to northern mining towns), and was a popular dropping-off spot for the famed “Group of Seven” painters on the early 1900s. [Group of Seven: National Gallery | McMichael Collection]

Highway North of Superior around Wawa

The “Big Gap” area was rugged, inaccessible, and covered with virgin timber. Building the highway required clearing a 50 metre (150 ft) right of way before the road construction could begin. The Big Gap had several deep gorges and large rivers that necessitated building 25 bridges, including a 173 metre (685 ft) Big Pic River bridge rising 40 metres (130 ft) just east of Marathon. The five mile stretch north of the Agawa River, required 1 million cubic metres of rock to be moved before road construction could begin.

East Shoreline of Lake Superior

The first part of the Highway south of Wawa threads through beautiful Lake Superior Provincial Park, before settling in for a drive along the eastern coastline of Lake Superior. This stretch gives great views over Lake Superior’s waters (you cannot see the other side, due to curvature of the earth over the lake’s 563 kilometre3 length) to the west, and stunning highlands of Algoma Country (popularized by the Group of Seven artists a century ago) to the east.

The Montreal River is only 104 km long, but because it falls swiftly through granite steep-walled canyons was easily dammed and now has 4 hydro-electric generating plants along its short length, two of which are easily accessible from the Trans-Canada.
Batchwana Bay, the midpoint of the Trans-Canada
Beside Hibbard Bay, at Mamainse is an ancient First Nations copper mine, that may have been worked as far back as 6000 BC. Etienne Brule, the first European explorer to reach Lake Superior sent news of the copper mine to the King of France back in 1623, but mining did not commence in 1772. Another copper mine was discovered in 1889, but petered out in only 5 years. Chippewa Falls, near Batchwana Bay,

Batchwana Bay, about 65 km north of Sault Ste Marie, marks the halfway point of the Trans Canada Highway*, with as many miles to the east as to the west. A Hudson’s Bay fur trading post was opened up here in 1824, but was closed down in 1894. Nearby Chippewa Falls has a very scenic waterfalls/rapids right beside the Trans Canada Highway.

Agawa Train unloading passengersSault Ste Marie – Connecting three Great Lakes

From this point southwards, travelers enter the St Mary’s River lowlands which connect Lake Superior to Lake Huron. Because Lake Superior’s water level was originally much higher, beach deposits are found even on higher hilltops making for very good agricultural land, though today that land is used for residential and recreational purposes.

Soo Locks Tour Boat

Sault Ste Marie was long an important gathering place for Ojibwa Indians, and the Jesuits built a mission here and called it Sault de Ste Marie (or St Mary’s Rapids, in French). Later, the fur traders of the Northwest Company and the Hudson’s Bay Company built trading forts here.. The strategic location, at the junction of three Great Lakes, made it a key defensive position for both British and Americans during the War of 1812.

Both sides built fortifications and canals, though today, only the American locks are used by modern St Lawrence Seaway shipping. The canal on the Canadian side is older and for smaller recreational craft. On the American side, the decision was to upgrade the canal with two parallel channels and locks to be part of the St Lawrence Seaway. These deeper larger locks enable grain and ore ships form Lake Superior to connect to smelters, factories along the lower Great Lakes and , and to Atlantic shipping at Montreal  on the lower St Lawrence.
