6 Hour Algonquin Park Canoe Trip

This group adventure is the perfect way to sample canoe tripping, without camping overnight. There is challenging paddling (8-16km), tranquil drifting, portaging (600m), hiking (1.5km), cliff jumping (if you want), swimming, a scenic lookout, historic landmarks, wild edibles (in season), spectacular landscapes and wildlife observation (usually birds, butterflies, turtles & small mammals; periodic moose & larger mammals).

Our canoes are all custom made 4 seaters, convenient for families and making new friends. These lightweight kevlar boats are easy to carry (solo or tandem) over the short portage.

Lunch is a fabulous sandwich from Henrietta's Pine Bakery. We also serve a granola bar snack. Participants must bring at least 2L of water.

Our naturalist guides have only the highest levels of training and certification. They ensure a safe, educational and intimate connection to Algonquin Park. We provide high quality trip photos (via Facebook only).

2 person minimum. Age 7+. No smoking.
