Algonquin, the first provincial park in Ontario, protects a variety of natural, cultural, and recreational features and values. As one of the largest provincial parks, Algonquin is diverse and offers something for nearly everyone.

Algonquin Provincial Park lies in a transition zone between deciduous forests typical of areas to the south of the Park, and coniferous forests, more typical of areas to the north. The result is that both forest types are found, and five major habitat types are found within Park boundaries supporting diversity in plant and animal life.

Some of the many activities you can do are Backcountry camping, backpacking, biking, boating, camping, canoeing, dog sledding, fishing, hunting & trapping, picnics, skiing, snowmobiling, swimming, white-water canoeing and many more.
