Haliburton Sculpture Forest Travel Guide

Discover the Haliburton Sculpture Forest, a distinctive outdoor art space located in Glebe Park, adjacent to the Haliburton School of Art + Design. Since its establishment in 2001, the forest has grown to showcase over 40 sculptures and several unique benches created by both Canadian and international artists.The sculptures are thoughtfully arranged along a network of trails within a maple forest on the shores of Head Lake. These trails are designed for walking, and biking in the warmer months, transitioning to snowshoeing and skiing during winter. The terrain is generally easy to navigate, with wide paths made of fine, compacted gravel or earth.Each season offers a new way to experience the art, with the changing light and weather conditions highlighting different aspects of the sculptures. The forest is open 365 days a year from dawn till dusk, inviting visitors to explore at their leisure. Admission is by donation, allowing everyone to enjoy this cultural and natural attraction. The Haliburton Sculpture Forest aims to unite art, nature, and people, providing a space for discovery and creative expression.
