Ferris Provincial Park

Ferris Provincial Park is a provincial park in northeastern Northumberland County in Ontario, Canada. The park occupies an area of 1.98 km² (0.76 sq mi) next to the Trent River in Campbellford, Ontario. Within the park are 10 kilometres of hiking and mountain biking trails and a suspension bridge over Ranney Gorge. Two campground areas offer 150 sites for car camping (tents to trailers).[1] There is no official access to Trent River, but unfenced portions lead down to riverbed and discouraged by park staff as area can be flooded over by water released by dam at nearby Ranney Falls (hydro electric) Generating Station.

The park's land was originally owned by James Marshall Ferris and his descendants.[2] The province acquired the lands in 1960 (Cock farm section in 1969) and opened the provincial park in 1962.[3]

The park was threatened by closure in 1994, but saved by efforts from the members of the local Rotary Club.[2] The Ranney Gorge suspension bridge was built by 8th Wing CFB Trenton from 2002 to 2004.[2]
