Katrine - Ontario Highway 11 Homepage

Katrine

Katrine Karnival parade Katrine is the first of a few tiny hamlets south of Burk’s Falls. Katrine is bordered on one side by Highway 11 and on the other by Doe Lake.

Katrine holds a number of little festivals during the year, including Summerfest, Octoberfest (I’m not sure if it’s a fall fair or a beer fair), and the Katrine Winterfest Karnival.

There is a nine-hole golf course on the Magnetawan river just outside of Katrine. The area also offers fishing, camping, and swimming at the Doe Lake beach.

I remember a picnic area but other than that I’ll have to give Katrine a stop during my next trip.

Doe Lake / Katrine is a great place for a family vacation. Several resorts rent cottages at reasonable rates. Swimming is super. Fishing is fine. Never snows in the summer lol

Katrine is not pronounced cut-treen, it's pronounced cat-trin. I said it wrong without knowing it from pretty much from the time I started paying attention to the road (maybe 6 or 7) right up until I started college. One of my 1st-year teachers was named Katrine, and the 1st day of class she taught us how to say her name, and now I don't say it wrong when me and my family are going north for a week and we come up to the road sign. I've decided that when I have children, I'm going to name my firstborn daughter after her.
