Activities
We know exactly what you want to do.
Everyone wants to try new, exciting, super-cool activities that they heard and always wanted to try. Building a sauna … canoeing to search for moose in the wild … canoe tour to a natural beaver dam … paddling under the stars … and more.
Astronomy Lesson
This is a basic astronomy lesson with all the fun stuff and little math. We construct a scale model of our solar system, learn constellations, and if the sky is clear, we use a telescope to see the moon and do some astrophotography. The lesson ends with a short paddle to the middle of the calm lake at night and watching the stars and planets.
Native-style Sauna
This is the most memorable, unexpected, and popular activity. Yes, we will build a sauna in the forest! A Muskoka clay face mask, sea salt body scrub, and eucalyptus oils will make this activity a paradise in Algonquin. Imagine 85C in a sauna in the forest on the edge of a river and then crawling out for a fresh swim.
How to Start a Fire Without Matches
This is a simple but cool activity. You will learn with a knife and stone and you'll learn by rubbing two sticks.
Animal Lectures
There are 5 short lectures with handouts and pictures on the local wildlife - moose, beavers, loons, snapping turtles, bears.
Night-time Canoe Tour
This is a night-time paddle in total darkness to a natural beaver lodge. We will use night vision and thermal binoculars to navigate and search for wildlife.
Day-time Canoe Tour
This is a 4-hour relaxing paddle looking for various wildlife along a long, narrow winding beaver river to a natural beaver dam.
Cliff Jumping
Simple but so much fun … climb, jump, swim, repeat. You can jump from 3-6 m.
Sunrise Paddle
Sunrise is the best time of the Park. Dead silent and absolutely peaceful. Only you, the loons, and the rising sun on a foggy lake. Best place to view the sunrise is always in a canoe on a small lake.
