Traveler advice

Getting around

ATV enthusiasts dream.

Located on Algonquin West ATV Club trails. Over 80% of trails are actual trails, deep in the bush, mainly on crown land. There are over 200km of trails. Check out BRP interactive app with trail maps. 1 day pass $20, 2 day pass $30, week pass $50, annual memberships also available. The BEST trails in Ontario, in our opinion 🙂
Getting around

Great Snowmobile trails!

We are located on many snowmobile trails too.
