The essence of Algonquin Park, Ontario’s oldest (dating to 1893) is in its vast interior of maple hills, rocky ridges, and thousands of lakes. The only way to explore the interior of this park is by canoe or on foot. It indeed features a pristine wilderness area cherished by outdoor enthusiasts. The park’s western entrance lies 49 km east of Huntsville via highway 60. Its 2,900 square miles of unspoiled forests and streams were a source of inspiration for landscape artist Tom Thomson in the early 1900s. Today Algonquin Park is the end of the rainbow for legions of canoeists and hikers. For the most part, the park has remained unchanged since it opened in 1893. Moose, bears, wolves, and birds still thrive here.
