Activities, Excursions of Algonquin Provincial Park (Canada).

Canada is the 2nd largest country in the world (after Russia), but only counts 40 million people... Most of these people live just north of the US-border. The big three cities (Toronto, Montreal and Vancouver) plus the other major cities have close to 75% of the total population. In other words: the country is empty outside the major cities! In Quebec province French is the official language, anywhere else English will do.

Algonquin Provincial Park is a large nature area in Ontario. Only one major road passes through here. To travel between the many lakes you either hike, or canoe, or both. Day trips and overnight stay are possible.

Algonquin is a great place to go camping and relax. The Great Outdoors do apply here. You may encounter all kinds of animals like moose, black bear and the mystical waterbird called loon.
