This short and refreshing introduction to Algonquin Provincial Park provides the perfect antidote to a stay in the big city and combines perfectly with our Essential Toronto & Niagara Falls experience. Departures: May 15, 22, 29. Jun 5, 12 and each Mon & Fri thereafter until Oct 19. Day 1: Toronto - Algonquin Your adventure begins today with the journey, north from Toronto, heading for the Algonquin Log Cabins that are located just outside the north-west corner of the park. Upon arrival in the park you will have a chance to stretch your legs before heading off on a hike to Surprise Lake where a picnic lunch awaits you. This afternoon a 23-foot Voyageur canoe beckons you for the final leg of the journey to the lodge. Here you get the chance to really experience the wilderness in an authentic log cabin whilst learning about the flora and fauna of the surrounding area. The log cabins offer comfortable accommodation while preserving a simple décor in harmony with the wilderness. Cabin facilities include shared washroom facilities, dining area with fireplace, lounge and a sauna with access to hot showers. To add to the 'wilderness experience' the lodge has no electricity. This afternoon is free to relax before a hearty dinner, and a twilight excursion into the woods to listen for the call of a wolf.(LD) Overnight: Algonquin Log Cabin Lodge Day 2: Algonquin Provincial Park After an edible wilds walk for breakfast, hike to Lookout Bluff for a breathtaking view of the Algonquin Lakes.
