Haliburton Highlands to the Ottawa Valley

Travel Guide

Our resident camp dog checking out the early morning on Highfalls Lake in Algonquin Park. It was day 3 of a 3 day canoe camping trip to check out the impressive Barren Canyon.
Beautiful view of the Barren canyon in Algonquin Provincal Park. We spent the next few days paddling and canoe camping this stunning area. #outdoors #river
Renting a cottage on Calabogie Lake in Ontario is a great way to wind down and relax. Take a swim, go fishing, canoeing or kayaking, be one with nature. #ontario #canada #AquaTrove
Early morning in Algonquin Park.

Wandering through an enchanted forest of thousands of orchids is good for the soul.  This beautiful conservation area is open all summer, although the orchids start blooming in mid-June to early July.
