Canada
Classic & Quiet, Fall Colour Algonquin.
20th September - 3rd October 2025, 12 days on trip.
6th October - 17th October 2025, 12 days on trip.
For a non-Canadian Guide, Wilderness Canoe probably know the interior of Algonquin better than most. We have traveled across, around and over a LOT of it...
Easy access from Toronto makes this area ideal for a first, second or third time visit. Algonquin, once across the first or second portage has a beautiful interior and opportunity to see much of the local fauna. October should be starting to colour up well also, although the 'peak' Fall Colour can never be guaranteed. No bugs, few people, reasonable weather - it's a great time to visit.
Wilderness Canoe have well established connections with the pre-eminent Outfitter in the region. Great equipment, great food, great staff, great trip support.
£2900.00/p - inc. Outfitting, Food, Permits, Guiding & local Shuttles.

Along with Algonquin further south Wilderness Canoe have spent a lot of time in Temagami, including as Guide in Residence at Temagami Outfitting Co. in 2017.
Easy access by bus and car from Toronto makes this area ideal for a first, second or third time visit. Temagami, has an extensive network of lakes and portages within its wild interior and opportunity to see much of the local fauna. Late August into September & October provide few to no bugs, few people on the less traveled routes and good weather - it's a great time to visit.
