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

5.0
(5 reviews)

4 days (approximately)
Offered in: English

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.

If there's time, guests can explore the quaint little shops of this beautiful small town or hop in the lake.

    Algonquin Provincial Park

    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!
