Overview
Join us on a 3 days camping tour to the oldest provincial park in Canada – Algonquin Provincial Park.
After your pick up in Toronto, we will drive to Algonquin Provincial Park. We will start our tour with 4 hours canoeing and swimming at Canoe Lake. Don’t worry if you don’t have any paddle experience. Our tour guide will give you a paddle lesson before canoeing and the tour guide will be canoeing with the group the whole time. You will have time to swim around Popcorn Island. Life jackets are provided so you can jump in even if you are not a swimmer!
As the group, you will decide which other hiking trails we will visit during the tour. It also depends on the trails and weather conditions. We usually hike one or two longer hikes during a tour such as Mizzy Lake and Booth’s Rock trail and few short hikes. You will have lot of time for swimming, relaxing and enjoying the nature around you.
Every night, after the dinner, you can chill around the campfire, roast marshmallows and watch stargazing.
This trip is great for beginner campers as we will help you to set up your tents. The campground has all the facilities such as toilet, showers and running water.
Breakfast, lunch and dinner will be provided by us but feel free to take your favorite snacks. Vegetarian options are available. We usually serve burgers, skewers and sausages for dinner. Eggs and bacon for breakfast and cold cut sandwiches for lunch. We will cook all the meals together.
You will need to bring your own camping equipment. We have limited amount of tents, camping pads and sleeping bags for rent/purchase. You will have to let us know 30 days before the tour if you need to rent or purchase any camping equipment.
