Algonquin Park

Ontario's most famous wilderness park, Algonquin, is right on Muskoka's doorstep. With an extensive variety of outfitters and a large range of accommodations in or near the park it's easy to explore this natural paradise.

On your visit to Algonquin be sure to see the world-class Visitor Centre. Its wonderful array of stunning dioramas presents the park's intriguing world of natural and human history. Take in the outstanding panoramic view from the outdoor deck, enjoy a light lunch in the cafeteria, and browse through the well-stocked bookstore and gift shop.

Visit the Logging Museum for an exciting trip through time with displays on the entire history of logging in the park, from the 1830's to the present. Explore the different habitats of Algonquin, from hardwood forest to spruce bog , on one of the 15 walking trails along the Hwy #60 corridor, and take part in any of countless other outdoor activities to discover more of the park's natural secrets. Enjoy the beauty of the fall colours, cross-country ski through a winter wonderland, and in the spring marvel at the moose which are easily spotted as they search for salt along the roadside.

Algonquin -- its a never-to-be-forgotten experience.
