Itinerary:

Algonquin Park is a perfect place to spend the long weekend! There are so many things to do from exploring trails to canoeing, hiking, biking and more. Hopefully the colour is extravaganza! When we're feeling less energetic... just relax by a beach or campfire. Algonquin Visitor Centre, Logging Museum and Art Centre are within Algonquin Park. Canoe/bike rental facilities are also nearby for those interested. The campground has drinking water, washrooms and shower facilities.

Car camping is a fun and easy way to introduce yourself to camping in Ontario! We'll have a meeting before that is mandatory to attend to discuss gears and sharing. Feel free to contact the coordinator if you have any questions or concerns.

It will be a good idea to email the co-ordinator once you paid to secure your priority.
