DESTINATION

Oil Springs

Within years the boom had ended and drillers moved 10 kilometres (6 mi.) north to Petrolia, where the industry has endured. More than 300 wells are still active in the Oil Springs area, many using 19th-century technology. They can be easily seen during a 5-minute drive around the perimeter of the village. Oil Springs is part of the Oil Heritage Tour, which includes signs on CR 21 (Oil Heritage Road) and on Hwy. 402.
