Adventure Description

Join us to hike one of the most famous trails in Algonquin Park.

Spring is one of the best times to visit, not only because it's quieter so we'll have the place to ourselves but it's also the best chance to see wildlife. Last time we were in the park we saw two bears.


Algonquin is the jewel in Ontario Park's crown, the size of a small country with more wilderness than you could ever hope to explore. We'll drive down the gorgeous Highway 60 corridor and take on the Cenetennial Ridges trail. This is a 10km hike with plenty of elevation and some rocky climbs that take us to an absolutely spectacular look out. It's moderately challenging and should be suitable for any members in decent shape. It's often regarded as the most beautiful hike in the whole of the park so you won't want to miss this.

We'll be on the look out for moose, birds of pray, beavers and maybe even some bears coming out of hibernation
