Located near the East side of the Park (45 minute drive) this loop trail and exhibits summarizes the logging history of the Algonquin area. On the easy-to-walk 1.3-kilometre trail, a recreated camboose camp and a fascinating steam-powered amphibious tug called an "alligator" are among the many exhibits on display.
