Landmarks, Lakes, Rivers

  • Algonquin Park is considered part of the "border" between Northern and Southern Ontario. The park is in an area of transition between northern coniferous forest and southern deciduous forest. Amazing wildlife attraction and some incredible fishing the further into the park you explore. Canoeing/Portaging is the best form of travel through the many rivers.

  • Magnetawan River: From its headwaters in Algonquin Park, the Magnetawan River flows through lakes, rapids and waterfalls as it winds its way to Georgian Bay. Ahmic Lake is the midpoint of the watershed. The lake empties at Knoepli Falls. From here you can canoe the river. It offers whitewater paddlers numerous places to practice their skills.

  • Muskoka featuring the tri-lakes of Lake Muskoka, Lake Joseph and Lake Rosseau

  • Haliburton Highlands offers anglers many small and medium size lakes.

  • Parry Sound: a popular cottage country region for Southern Ontario residents. It also has the world's deepest natural freshwater port.
