Description

We're going for a 2 night front-country camping trip at Bruce Peninsula National Park, one of the most in demand campsites in Canada. The park is completely sold out for '25 already so, if you've wanted to visit - this is your chance!

The Bruce Peninsula is famous for its gorgeous limestone landscapes and crystal clear turquoise water. There's really nowhere else quite like it in Ontario. Nearby is one of Canada's most iconic hikes to the Grotto, a ridiculously pretty natural cave and swimming spot.

This trip is car-camping so it's an easy way to get comfortable spending a night outside in a tent. We'll be leaving first thing on Friday morning with a first stop in Tobermory to tour the famous town and eat their legendary fish & chips.

We'll then move on Cyprus Lake Campground where we'll set up camp and explore the trails. At night we'll all have dinner together and roast smores over a campfire.

Bruce Peninsula is a Dark Sky Preserve meaning that if the clouds are clear we'll be in for some truly incredible stargazing.

The morning after, we'll hike to The Grotto, those who want to brave the cold can jump in for a swim. Later in the day, you can explore the Bruce Peninsula or hang around the campsite to learn camp craft like starting a fire and hanging a tarp.

For our final day, we'll have a lazy morning at the campsite then check into nearby Lion's Head for lunch on the beach.

  • Experienced guides with advanced medical qualifications
  • Lightweight canoe rental along with all necessary equipment
