ALWAYS check Alerts and other information on the official website, as conditions and facility availability are subject to change.
NOTE: Either this is a backcountry camping and hiking park best enjoyed by experienced paddlers and adventurers or it may involve an exceptionally long drive. Accessing the park may be tricky. It is outside the scope of our website, and you should contact the park for information about activities and facilities.
Access is by canoe or float plane, as there are no roads.

The main park gate is now closed for the season (2023). However, leaving your vehicle outside the park and accessing trails on foot may be possible. Confirming this with the park office would be worthwhile if you travel a long distance. You should know that there will be no open facilities and limited staffing.
Park Winter access: In 2020, we asked Ontario Parks about park access outside of the season when most parks are officially closed. The access situation, availability of parking, and other factors can be different for each par. Where we have specific knowledge or information we will add this to the parks information. If you are traveling a long way best to double-check with the park office. Contact information is listed above. Their reply was, “Parks that are closed for the season, and non-operational parks, are gated, and access is available by foot. Visitors are permitted to park outside the gates and walk in for day use activities, such as hiking, fishing and picnicking. Please note that all buildings and facilities will be closed, and there is no consistent staff presence to oversee actions in the park.”

Maps & Resources
Ontario Crown Land Use Policy Atlas: most Provincial Parks have excellent signage, maps, and marked trails. If you take up back-country adventures, then it’s not always clear. The Ontario Crown Land Use maps are an excellent resource. You might also want to join one or more of these groups on Facebook
