Front of Yonge is a township in the United Counties of Leeds and Grenville in Ontario, Canada.
It is the location of the Thousand Islands National Park Visitor Centre and Brown's Bay Beach, as well as a number of private campgrounds, the Jones Creek walking trail system, and the 1000 Islands Waterfront Trail’s walking/bike path which runs from just beyond the township’s eastern boundary to neighbouring towns. The predominance of the Canadian Shield produces scenic and diverse landscapes which include exposed rock formations and heavy tree cover, as well as wide fields and beaches.
