4-Day Canadian Camping Road Trip ("Moose On The Loose")

  • 4 days (approx.)

  • Mobile ticket

Stand tall at the edge of the world, paddle an infamous Canadian lake, be one with nature. Loaded with classic routes and itineraries, you’ll love what Lake Fever has to offer on this 4 day romp across 3 prime wooded destinations: Algonquin, Killbear, and Killarney Provincial Parks. A journey of a thousand miles begins with a call to Lake Fever. No guest preparation is needed, no equipment, not even a sleeping bag/pad. Lake Fever offers budget travelers free transportation, camp-cooked meals, and good old fashioned campfires, but *please be advised, on this particular tour guests will be expected to share in cooking/dishes duties at least once.* Sightseers can enjoy access to the Canadian wilderness for a unique opportunity that would otherwise take a lot of planning and money to arrange (not to worry, first-timers will learn the basics of camping). Cross the great Canadian road trip off your bucket list. Who knows, it may be your once-in-a-lifetime experience.

What to Expect

Shared tour (max 13)
8 stops
4 days duration
Day 1

Welcome To Algonquin!

Stop at: Huntsville

90 min

Lunch stop at a lakeside restaurant in cottage country. On a hot day, Huntsville's marina patios are the place to be. If there's time, guests can explore the quaint little shops of this beautiful small town or hop in the lake. Huntsville hosts many summer festivals, so if something exciting is happening, we'll be sure to take a peek before heading out. *Lunch not included*

Stop at: Algonquin Provincial Park

600 min

With 7,653 square kilometres of space, world famous Algonquin Provincial Park is larger than some countries! Perhaps that's why it's one of the best places in North America for moose spotting. Upon arriving at camp, the group is introduced to their home with a short tent setup demo, after which there's plenty of time to enjoy the sun & the crisp, refreshing water. We recommend a game of beach bocce ball with our regulation set. As a special treat, your chef (& guide) will have dinner prepared on your return. We end the night chatting around a group campfire, where we'll teach first-timers how to make world famous S'mores!

*COVID: All guests will be upgraded to their OWN 4-person tent AT NO EXTRA COST (those still wishing to share may do so)
Either: 1) Asian Vegetable Stir Fry on a Bed of Rice, 2) Veggie Burritos, OR 3) Gourmet Pasta Primavera in Tomato Sauce
Day 2

Do As The Beavers Do

Stop at: Beaver Pond Trail

45 min

Begin the day with a big continental breakfast, morning coffee, and one of Algonquin's most stunningly beautiful hikes. Beaver Pond Trail is a 45 minute 2.0 km loop trail that visits a huge real life beaver pond, and a spectacular lookout. The radiant greens and yellows in this serene woodland habitat are very unexpected!

Stop at: The Portage Outpost Algonquin Park

120 min Admission not included

Guests will have the opportunity to paddle the glistening waters of Canoe Lake, captured in the famous paintings of Tom Thomson. There's nothing more peaceful than being out on the water in a canoe. Out there, you can only hear the birds calling, and the splash of your paddle hitting the water.

Stop at: Killbear Provincial Park

300 min Admission included

The group arrives in time to throw together a delicious dinner, followed by another romp around the campfire. Be prepared for a late 8pm meal and a beautiful sunset.

*COVID: All guests will be upgraded to their OWN 4-person tent AT NO EXTRA COST (those still wishing to share may do so)
